Start-Up - Writing Now, in your chart for TUESDAY, discuss the following question: In order to write a good summary of a story, there are some things that you MUST include. Tell me 3-5 things that must be included in a good summary, and tell me WHY each one is important.

Summarizing a Story Today we will be focusing on how to write a summary of a story. We will be using some of our Elements of a Narrative to gather important information from the story. In summary writing, we will write a sentence for each of these key terms.

Summarizing a Story Exposition Introduces the characters and setting In summary writing, we have to begin by giving the reader a sentence of exposition; introducing the main character(s) and the setting of the story. This is also when we will give the title (and author’s name, if it is known). Example: The story “The Ugly Duckling” by Hans Christian Andersen is about a little duckling, living on a lake, who rises above the bullying of his friends and family. Partner Practice

Summarizing a Story Conflict The problem or struggle that drives the story's plot. The next thing we do, in summary writing, is give the reader a quick explanation of the main conflict. This can include some of the complications of the story as well, since they add to the conflict. Example: The “ugly” duckling was picked on by the other ducklings because he looked different. Partner Practice

Summarizing a Story Climax The turning point, or the most important event. The next thing we do, in summary writing, is tell the reader about the climax of the story. Example: Then, one day, the duckling discovered another family of birds that looked just like him. Partner Practice

Summarizing a Story Resolution The story ends and the problem is solved. Next, we tell the reader about the resolution or ending of the story. Example: The ugly duckling found his true family and was never made fun of again. Partner Practice

Summarizing a Story Theme The main idea in a story or the lesson to be learned Finally, we tell the reader about the theme of the story. This may include the main idea of the story and/or any moral or lesson to be learned. Example: The story of the ugly duckling teaches us that we all have somewhere we fit in; we just have to find it. Partner Practice

Independent Work You will be writing a one paragraph summary of the story, “The Love Letter” by Jack Finney. To do this, you will be using the Summary Writing Worksheet (see assignments in Google Classroom).Summary Writing Worksheet Follow the instructions for each sentence and then rewrite your sentences in the space given.

It can be hard to decide what information, and how much information, to include. Do you think today’s lesson and exercise helped you to understand how to write a summary of a story?

Start-Up - Discussion With your HORIZONTAL partner, discuss the following question: Think about the story, “The Love Letter.” Do you think the conflict in the story is internal or external?
