Summarizing

Today's Goal: WRITE a summary and reflection of your research and how it helps you with your design process.
ELA-LITERACY.RL.6.2
Determine a central idea of a text and how it is conveyed through particular details; provide a summary of the text distinct from personal opinions or judgments.
The Plan:

1. Read
2. Write your summary - documents can be found on Google Classroom

Summary and Reflection (Directions)
Most of the info is on Google Classroom, but here are some pointers:

• Put my name AND your science teacher's name in the header
• Ms. Black and Mrs. ___
• Summary (Paragraph 1)
• summaries do not need evidence. You probably don't need to use quotes from the text. Summarize means you have to share what the article is about in your own words.
• should NOT have the word "I" ANYWHERE
• Make sure you put the author's last name in parentheses at the end of the paragraph. If you do not know the author, put the title in quotation marks
• Reflection (Paragraph 2)
• SHOULD have the word "I" all over it
