Summarizing vs Paraphrasing

 Indicator 2.A.4.d – 31% Basic
 Paraphrasing – taking a section of text and
  restating it in your own words
 Summarizing - telling the main idea or
  selection of events in your own words
Paraphrase Practice
 Paraphrase the old saying, “Don’t
  count your chickens before they
  hatch.”
 Dont just write: “Wait until the
  chickens have hatched before
  counting them.”
 Instead, examine the idea behind
  the phrase and restate it in more
  direct terms.
 “Never assume you’ll get something
  you want until you have it.
Summarizing
 Now that we’ve
  reviewed paraphrasing,
  let’s discuss how to
  effectively summarize.
 A             is a short
  piece of writing about a
  longer piece. A
  summary includes only
  the most important
  details or main ideas.
