Part B: Briefly discuss major ideas in the 3 chapters
Caution: Do not copy phrases or sentences. Instead, use your own words.
Avoid unnecessary words like “This chapter discussed…” “I am going to tell you about…”
Let the author speak. Keep yourself out of it. Don’t say anything like this: “To me, the most interesting…” “I was surprised to learn that…” Statements like these indicate a personal RESPONSE. They do not belong in a SUMMARY.
Here’s an outline for summary sentences:
Transition + In Chapter 2, write 3 summary sentences capturing big ideas.
