Practice with Summaries
You take some time to write up a one paragraph summary (and a paragraph of response if you can) to the Pat Bourne article. This goes in your daybook.
Then we look at an example of a summary/response to that article which meets this assignment.
Homework:
1. Read through the Twitchell article again. Underline important points and interesting statements. Write questions/comments in the margins. Think about how Twitchell presents his information. Where is there a lot of detail? Are there places you'd like to know more? Do you agree with his idea that hair coloring was a dangerous product?
2. One vocabulary word.
