Wednesday 04/12 Reading - Practice Summarizing

Purpose:  I can determine the important elements of my reading by identifying the text, verb, topic, and big ideas.
  1. Read and comprehend "Paul Revere" in the American Revolution War Heroes Packet:
  2. Have your "Quoting Accurately to Infer" Response ready to share in a Book Club Meeting with Mr. Erickson:
    • Someone Named Eva
    • Sarah Bishop
  3. Independent Reading Time
  4. "Determine Importance by Summarizing" Response is due TOMORROW:
    • You should summarize at least two selections of your reading assignment.
    • First, identify the text as specifically as you can.
    • Then, state the verb that describes what the author does with their writing.
    • Next, identify the topic of the text selection--what the text is mostly about.
    • Last, record at least three big ideas that support the topic of the selection.
    • Finally, use your outline to write a summary paragraph.
