It is critical for students to be able to evaluate the effectiveness of their summaries. These sets of questions are taken from Teach Them ALL to Read by Elaine McEwan.
1. If you have not read the text yourself, would you be able to understand what it was about from the summary? Why or why not?2. Is there anything important that should be added? What is it? 3. Is there anything unimportant that should be be left out of the summary? What is it?
“Practice in summarizing improves studentsʼ reading comprehension of fiction and nonfiction alike, helping them construct an overall understanding of a text, story, chapter, or article.”
(Rinehart, Stahl & Erickson, 1986)
