Guidelines for writing a summary

• Take notes while reading.
  
• State the main ideas of the article.
  
• Identify the most important details that support the main ideas.
  
• Write in own words; do not copy phrases.
• Express the main meaning of the article, no details.
  

Introduction of your summary should include:

• Introduction paragraph
  
• Start with a summary or overview of the article which includes the author’s name and the title of the article.
  
• Finish with the main idea of the article.

Body of your summary should include:  (1/2)

Body Paragraphs

• The number of paragraphs in your summary depends on the length of the original article.
  
• You will likely write between4-6 paragraphs.
• Your summary should be 500 words (+/- 10%)
  

Body of your summary should include:  (2/2)

For a multi-paragraph summary

• Discuss each supporting point in 1 separate paragraph.
  
• Start each body paragraph with a topic sentence.
  
• Each paragraph focuses on a separate main idea and the most important details related to that idea.
• Put the ideas from the article into your own words.
  
• Use linking words (verbindende zinnen/woorden) to connect ideas.
  
• Check the internet / Moodle for examples of linking words in English.

Conclusion of your summary should include

• Concluding paragraph
  
• Summarize the main idea and the underlying meaning of the article.
  
• Again, use of linking words is crucial in writing summaries.
