A summary of a story is much shorter than the story.
Summarizing is telling the important events or ideas in a story in your own words.
A good summary does not give your own ideas or opinions.
To summarize a story, you need to include the story elements- setting, character,
plot (beginning, middle and ending)
Activity: Read the story and make a summary.
Playground
Molly and her friend Bella were playing at the playground. They were supposed
to be taking turns on the swing. Molly counted to 100 while Bella was on the swing.
Bella didn’t get off the swing.
“Bella! I counted to 100, it’s my turn!” said Molly.
“You counted too fast, it’s still my turn,” Bella said.
Molly was upset. She wanted a turn on the swing, too! What could she do? Molly
could tell the teacher, but her teacher always wanted them to try to solve the
problem first. How would she solve the problem??
She decided to try using an “I message”. That means to tell the other person
how you’re feeling, why you feel that way, and what they can please do to make it
better.
“Bella, I feel sad because we were supposed to take turns after 100 seconds. Will
you please get off?” Molly asked. Finally, Bella got off the swing. Molly was happy
because she solved her problem all by herself!
