Here is some information to help you get through your essay in Workshop 4...
What Is Summarizing?
Summarizing is how we take larger selections of text and reduce them to their bare essentials: the gist, the key ideas, the main points that are worth noting and remembering. Webster's calls a summary the "general idea in brief form"; it's the distillation, condensation, or reduction of a larger work into its primary notions.
What Are We Doing When We Summarize?
We strip away the extra verbiage and extraneous examples. We focus on the heart of the matter. We try to find the key words and phrases that, when uttered later, still manage to capture the gist of what we've read. We are trying to capture the main ideas and the crucial details necessary for supporting them.
What Do I Want You To Do?
- pull out main ideas
- focus on key details
- use key words and phrases
- break down the larger ideas
- write only enough to get your ideas across
- take short but complete notes

Hi Mrs. Fitzgerald
I think that clair really did kill Bob Dorotik. Because if jane really did kill him she would not still be fighting to get out of jail.
The story was really good !! ☺

Okay Mrs.Fitzgerald
I think that this story was really good because it reminded me of C.S.I. Like how the wife kills her husband because she was mad at him for something.But I think that the wife killed Bob because she got mad that Bob didn't make plane for Valentines Day. Just like a C.S.I episod.That what im probably going to write about in my three paragraph essay.

I will be writting 3 paragraghs about the murder of Bob Dorotik. I think clarie killed Bob because maybe the wife was not lieing. Maybe she didn't kill Bob that is why she is fight to get out of jail. A other reson i think clarie did it is because i think that clarie killed him because he did not like her new step-dad or she killed him for her mom could go back with her dad.

I will be writing about Bob Derotiks Death.
I really think that hes wife Jane and her daughter claire killed him because they both had access to probably everything that was owned by Bob. I also belive that they should be both in prison because if it was really both of them that killed Bob I think they should both be paying the price. I also feel bad for Bib because he died before hes time Rest in Player Peace Bob Dorotik.
