Nonfiction Article Summary


Today, we're going to take a little time to practice our nonfiction reading skills, summarizing skills, and blogging skills.  We need a little time before we start the book club groups (mostly because not everyone had a chance to fill out the form).  While we wait, we're going to practice some of the skills that we will be using during the book club project.

What you will do:  Read at least one article.  This can be a magazine article or another article that you read online.  Write a 3 sentence summary of what you read as a comment on this blog entry.  Then reply to other students' comments.

What should it look like?
Article Title: Put the article title here
Source:  Give the name and month of the magazine - or - the Website your online article came from.
Summary:  Write your three sentence summary here.

How will it be graded?  Blog Rubric
