Summary/Response

First of all, we work out which article you will be reading.  At the end of class there will be time for you to go print a copy of that article.

Then you read "Bourne Overcomes Tragedy ..."


You try writing two paragraphs of summary and response.  Then we look at an example of this kind of writing.

Homework:

1.  Read your article through several times.  Try to figure out its structure.  Come up with questions about parts as you read them. Try to figure out decisions the author made in presenting the information the way s/he did. See Everyday Writer pages 116-117.

2.  You should have about 14 vocabulary words as of today.  Your article should provide you with more.
