English Lesson (6th Feb)

Today, i learnt about how to write a summary. Mr Sim gave us a worksheet to write down the basic steps on how to write a summary and to practice re-writing and re-phrasing sentences.

The Basic steps are:

1. Find out exactly what you have to search for.
- Write out on rough paper the words of the question that tell you what to search for.
( read question carefully such as noting what you are supposed to write and which part of the passage you are allowed to use.)

2. Search for relevant points.
- Go through the whole passage (or selected lines) and underline strictly just what you need to answer the question.

3. Say it your way
- Make brief notes of what you have underlined in your own words.

4. Write it
- Write your notes, concentrating on writing good, accurate sentences.
