Summary
Let’s write a summary. A very short summary. With VERY strict rules.
- First, students summarize a story’s plot as a haiku, using the three lines of the poem to summarize the beginning, middle, and end.
- Next, they’ll write a haiku from a character’s perspective.
- Then, they’ll write a different character’s perspective.
- Now, they’ll sum up a dramatic moment in the story from a particular character’s point of view.
- Finally, they will revise their haiku.
