Summary Reflection



We did our first summary on desert horsemen police patrols. This summary talks about how the police can keep the city safe. Hedley gave us some advice about how to summarize the passage and how to get the main ideas, look at the opening and closing paragraphs, and we have to omit the names and the quotations. This summary was a practice.
The second summary we did was about road crashes, and mostly it was about children's safety. Hedley taught us how to use the words in the sentences and how we can get the main purpose from the paragraph and summarize it. He fixed our mistakes, after we submitted them, and he returned them to us for review . This summary grade is 10 percent from our overall grade.
Our third summary was about pearl diving. This summary tells you how the pearl diving is getting less and less famous with the years. This passage talks mostly about the past, present, and what they will do in the future to keep the pearl diving going on. Hedley taught us that in this summary we need some dates and numbers. But we don't have to use them a lot.
