• Remember when writing a paragraph I told you to think of the table top as the main idea, the legs as the supporting sentences and the concluding paragraph as the lovely tablecloth…
![Page 3: oprah teaches proquest.pptx](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062523/58ecac4d1a28ab884f8b46ef/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
•Well, get ready to get the legs (and the tablecloth) pulled out from under you!
![Page 4: oprah teaches proquest.pptx](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062523/58ecac4d1a28ab884f8b46ef/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
• When you write a summary, you want ONLY the main idea from the paragraph! You want ONLY the table top from our table.
• This will prepare you for your next major assignment; creating an arsenal (3) of article summaries!

• “A summary condenses and presents information, often from a single source. When you write a summary, your goal is to concisely present information from an essay, article or book so that your reader understands the main points. A summary ordinarily presents the author’s ideas objectively, without criticism or evaluation” (Arlov 234).

• “At the end of the summary, if the assignment calls for it, write a brief evaluation of the essay or article you are summarizing” (Arlov 234).

• First realize that “good readers distinguish the most important ideas in a passage and summarize them according to an appropriate organizational pattern” (name #).
• “…it is (your) responsibility to bring meaning to the text” (name #).

• Explanation- you need to put the key concepts of the article in your own words and omit personal opinion. Be objective.
• The source of information should come from context textbooks or periodicals but… We are going to use the
Great Big Book of Oprah

• We must remember to– Delete minor and redundant details, remember
how hard we worked to create those details!– Combine similar details into categories and
provide a label, then– Select main idea sentences when the author
provides them– Invent main idea sentences when the author is not explicit.
This rule is applied most successfully
These 3 rules
require more
thought. You must
move from the general
to the specific.

• Modeling-this must be done both verbally and in writing.– I will articulate my though process. You read
silently while I read aloud.Questioning-you must be involved in the
questioning; too may college students are passive learners.
You easily ask product questions; these are related to the finished product…

“Is my paper
correct or incorrect?
”
“Does it have the correct
number of pages?”
“Should it be typed or hand-written?”

You need to ask process questions
“What details did my
summary miss?”
“What point do these details serve in my summary?”
“If I delete these
details, will it improve
my summary?”
