Summarizing Worksheets & Activities

Summarizing is one of those skills that may seem very easy to a teacher but can be difficult for students who have not been properly taught how to summarize. For many years I did not even teach my seventh and eighth grade students how to summarize. I would just ask them to summarize texts and then get mad at them when they failed to produce quality summaries. I was wrong in doing this. Now I always teach my students how to write summaries.

Additionally, as per the Common Core State Standards, summaries should not contain opinions, background knowledge, or personal information; rather, a summary should be entirely text based. After years of learning to make connections between the text and themselves, students must be retrained to keep themselves out of their writing in regards to summaries. Teaching this skill surely warrants some of your class time.

Here are some resources that I used in my classroom to teach my students how to summarize. I hope that you find this page useful:

115 comments, alphonsa anis.

Thanks it was extremely helpful.

Absolutely fabulous. I’m using them for two employees who are struggling to summarise information. Very, very helpful – thank you.

Hello, can these great worksheets be linked to Google Classroom? Also, how can I have my students access the online assessments? Thank you.

There is a Google Classroom button on the title slide of each online assignment. Press this button to assign it. Google Classroom integration is pretty thin right now, but I’m hoping that they open up their platform more sometime soon!

Thank you, Mr. Morton, for sharing your tips and worksheets for summary teaching and writing practices. Very useful!

Some great activities, really helpful. One thing I want to point out is that shinobi-no-mono is NOT Chinese – this is Japanese. And in the text the characters given are Japanese, NOT Chinese. This is quite a big oversight. As language teachers we need to be aware of different languages.

Thank you. I appreciate the insight.

I want summary and practice sheets for grade 6

Please send me an answer key for the summarizing test.

Acutually 忍の者 isnt chinese the word の is japanses, while in chinese and japanese they call ninja , 忍者. Other than that this is some really good stuff to study my summary from

great material. I´ve been looking for this type of easy to read/ understand material for a long time.

Would it be possible to have the solutions to the test?

Thanks in advance.

Diane Thomas

DO YOU HAVE THE ANSWER KEY TO THE SUMMARIZING TEST?

Mrs. Robinson

Hello, I’m looking for the answer guide for the Summarizing test, please advise if it is available?

Loan Nguyen

Thanks for your sharing. Invaluable resources for teachers. It would be highly appreciated if you can send me the key for the summary test.

Is there an answer sheet for the summarizing test?

EXCELLENT worksheets!

Like many of the above comments, I was hoping that there was an answer key for the summarizing test.

I’m pleased that today is the day that I can finally say, “ Here you go .”

Thank you so much!!

Thank you very much. Bless you!

Thank you, Mr. Morton, for sharing these materials. Indeed this is of great help in my class.

The materials are awesome!! I’d like to separate them to two levels of my students. I’m teaching international students, the comparasion of the good and bad summary really works a lot. I really appriciate for your sharing. However, could you share the summarising answer keys as well? That would help me a lot. Thank you!

Would you consider making something for the 4th & 5th grade level? The examples were all very helpful, but many of my students read below grade level. Thank you again! Jill C.

Thanks from Toronto! Great help for ESL classes here.

Thanks so much from Istanbul! Kids loved it and saved me so much precious precious time

saida merad

Thank you for your valuable help!

Thank you for putting all the material together.

I couldn’t find the answers for the Summarizing Test. They will surely save me some time. Please send them to me, or let me know where I can find them. Thank you so much,

Did you get the answer sheet?

Thank you for all the great materials to use, they will prove to be a great resource!

I was wondering if you would mind pointing out the source from which you pulled the information about ninjas for your worksheet on them. I just wanted to make sure I had the right information because from the bit of research that I pulled up, I see that both in history (concept / existence) and etymology, ninjas are Japanese. The Japanese use kanji, which are essentially Chinese characters, and is only one of the three different “alphabet” sets they use for written communication. So words like “shinobi” and “shinobi no mono” are all Japanese in origin, but written using Chinese characters and not really associated with Chinese culture. This is especially true because “no mono” is a Japanese phrase. Please let me know if there is a source that does say otherwise, so that I can have all the information. Thank you again!

Hello. I pulled that content from a Wikipedia page a long time ago. I’m no expert on the subject. I was just writing a worksheet that I hope would interest students.

These worksheets are helpful but the commenter above is correct, none of these words are or have ever been Chinese. “Shinobi” was in Japanese poems in the 8th century, not Chinese. Shinobi was the Chinese reading of the characters, but it was always a Japanese word. It might be helpful to fix this worksheet to avoid presenting incorrect information to students.

What is the answer key for summary test please?

Thanks a million for this Mr. Morton. This lesson will help me and my students understand summarizing better. God bless your sir!

Thank you so much for helpful material

Brian Samson

What a phenomenal effort you’ve done in putting together all these. Appreciate your ideas. Fabulous!

How amazing to come across your Summarising resouces with explicit instructions. Your comments about teaching the students how to effectively summarise was the most important fact. This in turn forced me to reflect on my own teaching. Thank you for the step by step instructions, they were very valuable. Have you posted any other reading strategy hints?

Sure, I’ve posted them all around this site. Feel free to explore a bit.

Good day Mr. Morton 😀 what is the answer keys for the summary test? I am not sure in my answer 😀

Wow, just wanted to thank you for your hard work and generosity to publish them for everybody. Thank you so much.

Kristen Moore

What an incredible site! Thank you for sharing your resources and ideas. Especially the Summary power point. I’ve been struggling to get my students to differentiate between a summary and a list of details. This will help so much!

Amy Gartland

I just discovered this site today. I teach high school ELL and was looking for good nonfiction texts that were accessible for my students. I will definitely be looking around some more and plan on using material in my lessons this week!

This was VERY helpful. Even for a university student who needed a refresher!

An answer key for the Summary would be helpful if provided. And also a whole passage summary, not just the summary for each paragraph.

How to Write a Summary

Write th Summary

A great part of Arabia is a desert with nothing but sand and rock. The sand is so hot by day that one cannot walk over it bare footed. Here and there are found springs of water that comes from deep down under the ground. These springs are few and far between. But wherever there is such a spring, green grass has grown over the land around it. Also, fig and palm trees have grown to make the place cool and shady. Such a place is called an oasis. The people living in Arabia are called Arabs. They eat ripe sweet figs and dates that grow on palm trees. They have the finest horses in the world and they are very proud of them. Nay, an Arab loves his riding more than his family even.

Summary and Title

Arabia is a desert with sand too hot to walk over by day. At places are found oases with cool water, green grass and trees. The Arabs eat ripe fruits of these trees. They keep fine horses whom they love dearly and are also proud of them. Title : Arabia and the Arabs.

Summary Writing Examples With Answers

The summary is a brief account of the chief points of a passage. There is a great difference between the summary and the precis or the substance. The precis is the central idea of a passage.

The difference between them is not only in degree but also in kind. There’s no hard and fast rule about the length of the summary, but so much can be half of the original passage.

In this post, we have added the top 10 Summary Writing Examples With Answers.

Summary Writing Examples With Answers #1

A long time ago, there lived a king in a faraway land. He was very weak and sick due to laziness. He consulted his doctor. The doctor was wiser than the king and knew that it was not medicine but healthy exercise that the king needed. The doctor, therefore, brought two heavy clubs of strange wood to the king and said that these clubs contained medicine to cure him. He asked the king to hold them by the handles and turn them until his hands were moist from the exercise.

Moisture, the doctor said, would make the medicine work. He obeys the doctor’s advice and can be seen in the open air at certain times every day, working manually with his magic clubs. His muscles grow stronger, his health improves, and he appreciates the wonderful medicine of his club and the knowledge of his physician.

Rough Draft:

(i) The king’s illness was the result of his idleness. (ii) He consulted his physician. (iii) The physician gave him two heavy clubs and told him to swing them till his body was sweating. (iv) The king followed the doctor’s advice and his health improved.

Summary : A king was suffering from weakness and illness due to his laziness. He consulted his doctor. The physician saw that the king needed healthy exercise, not medicine. He gave the king two heavy bundles of a strange wood and advised him to swing regularly in the open air until his body began to sweat. Raja followed the doctor’s advice. His health has improved. He appreciated the doctor’s treatment of his disease.

Summary Writing Examples With Answers # 2

King Midas was fond of gold more than anything else in the world. He treasured his royal crown because it was made of that precious metal. If she loved anything good or half as good, it was a little girl who played around her father’s feet so happily. But the more Midas loved his daughter, the more he desired wealth.

He thought the foolish man that he was, the best thing he could possibly do for his beloved child was to bestow upon him the great pile of yellow shiny coins that had been collected since the creation of the world. So he gave all his thoughts and all his time to this one cause. If ever he looked for a moment at the golden clouds of sunset, he wished they were gold and that they could be safely squeezed into his strong box.

Chief Points:

(i) King Midas was very fond of gold. (ii) He loved gold for the sake of his daughter to whom he wanted to bequeath all the gold of the world. (iii) He even wished the gold-coloured clouds of sunset were real gold.

Summary: King Midas loved gold more than earthly things. The royal crown was precious to him because it was made of gold. But he loved his daughter dearly and would have paid for her in gold. He wanted to give her all the gold in the world. He even wished the golden clouds of the sunset to be true gold so that he could hold them and store them in an iron safe.

Summary Writing Examples With Answers # 3

A man in the east gave up all worldly concerns and went to a wood, where he built a hut and lived in it. His only clothing was a piece of cloth that he wore around his waist. But as ill luck would have it, rats were plentiful in the wood; so he had to keep a cat. The cat requires milk; so he had to keep a cow. The cow required tending, so a cowboy was employed.

The boy required a house to live in. So a house was built for him. To look after the house a maid had to be engaged. To provide company for the maid a few more houses had to be made, and people were invited to live in them. In this manner, a little township sprang up in the lovely wood. (136 words)

Title – A forest turns into a town

A man gave up all worldly things and went to live in a block of lovely wood. Rats troubled him. So he kept a cat. To feed the cat he kept a cow. Then came one by one a cowboy, a maid, and her companions. They needed houses to live in. Thus the forest turned into a town. (58 words)

Summary Writing Examples With Answers # 4

The noblest deeds that have been done on earth have not been done for gold. It was not for the sake of gold that Lord Jesus came down and died on the cross. The Spartans looked for no reward where they fought and died at Thermopylae . Socrates the wise asked for no pay from his countrymen but lived poor and barefooted all his days only caring to make them good and noble. And there are heroes even in our own days also who do noble deeds but not for gold.

Our discoverers did not go to make themselves rich when they sailed out one after another into the dreary frozen seas: nor did the ladies who went out to drudge in the hospital of the East make themselves poor that they might be rich in noble work. (136 words)

Title – Money should not be the goal of life

It is not for money that the noblest deeds have been done by great men. Jesus, Socrates, the Spartans, the explorers, and the nurses in hospitals served mankind purely for the sake of service. (34 words)

Summary Writing Examples With Answers # 5

Nelson, as a child, was not of a strong body. Yet he gave proof of that resolute heart and nobleness of mind which during the whole of his glorious career so eminently distinguished him. One day he strayed from his grandmother’s house in the company of a cowboy. The dinner hour passed; he was absent and could not be found. The alarm of the family became very great, for they feared that he might have been carried off by the gipsies.

At length after a long search, he was discovered sitting composedly by the side of a brook which he could not get over. “I wonder, child,” said the old lady, when she saw him, “That hunger and fear did not drive you home”, Fear! grandmamma,” replied the future hero,” I never saw fear; what is it?” (137 words)

Title – Nelson the fearless boy

Nelson gave proof of his fearlessness even in his childhood. One day he strayed away from his grandmother’s house and did not return even at dinner time. At last, he was found sitting by a brook. To his grandmother’s wonder how even hunger and fear could not drive him home, he said he had never seen fear and did not know either what it was. (65 words)

Summary Writing Examples With Answers # 6

From the moment we are born, we can not live alone; we stand in continual need of assistance from all around us, for body and soul and spirit; we need clothes that other men make; houses, which other men build, food, which other men produce; we have to get our livelihood by working for others, while others get their livelihood in return by working for us.

As children we need our parents to be our comforters, and to take care of others: we can not exist a day without our fellowmen; we require teachers to educate us: books and masters to teach our trade; and when we have learned it and settled ourselves in life, we require laws made by other men who died hundreds of years before we were born, to secure to us our rights and properties, to secure to our comforts in our station; and we need friends to comfort us in sorrow and to share our joy. (161 words)

Title – One can not live alone

We cannot live alone in this world. We need the help of a host of people-the farmers for food, the weaver for cloth, the mason for houses; for consolation in sorrow, teachers for education, lawyers for property, and above all, parents to bring up in our childhood. (47 words)

Summary Writing Examples With Answers # 7

One night a holy man, Abu Ben Adhem by name, suddenly woke up from a deep dream of peace and saw in his moonlit room an angel writing something in a book of gold. He did not feel at all frightened. The peaceful face of the angel made Abu bold and he said to the angel, “What are you writing?” The angel looked up and replied in a kind and sweet tone, “I am taking down the names of those who love God.” “And is my name one among them?” Asked Abu. But the angel replied, ” No, it is not.” “I pray thee then,” said Abu, “To write me down as one who loves his fellowmen.”

The Angel wrote and vanished. The next night the angel came again with a great light which awaked Abu Ben Adhem: and he showed Abu the names of those who had been blessed by the love of God. And behold! the name of Abu was at-he top of the list. (166 words)

Title – To love men is the best way to love God

One night Abu Ben Adhem was sleeping in his room. An angel came there and wrote down the names of the lovers of God. But Abu’s name was not there. At Abu’s request, the angel wrote his name as a lover of man. The next night it was seen that Abu’s name headed the list of the lovers of God. (60 words)

Summary Writing Examples With Answers # 8

We call anything beautiful that gives us pleasure, and that depends as much upon ourselves as upon what is outside us. Perhaps the majority of people find the sea beautiful when it is blue. If someone has lived in Italy as a child and has to live beside the grey northern seas when he is grown up, he will think that the grey seas are ugly: and that nothing can be so beautiful as the blue Mediterranean. But suppose a Scottsman who loves Scotland has to go and live in Italy. He might find the blue sea after a little while very uninteresting. Only when he went home and saw the grey sea again would he find the sea beautiful.

We are made in different ways, and grey may be just as beautiful as blue, just as the cry of a baby may be found sweeter in someone’s ears than the finest note of the finest singer that ever lived. Nothing is beautiful or ugly in itself, but thinking makes it so. (172 words)

Title – Test of Beauty

Nothing in this world is beautiful or ugly in itself. Things appear beautiful or ugly according to the idea of our beauty of ourselves. The same thing may appear different to people brought up in different environments. Generally, speaking the majority of people consider a thing beautiful that gives pleasure. But this depends on our outlook. (56 words)

Summary Writing Examples With Answers # 9

Man first appeared on earth half a million years ago. Then he was little more than an animal. Even so, early man had certain advantages over animals. He had a large brain, he had an upright body with quick-moving hands. He invented a language to communicate with his fellow men.

This ability to speak was of supreme value because it allowed men to share ideas and plan together: speech enabled ideas to be passed on from generation to generation. These special advantages put men far ahead of all other living creatures. Since those far-off times, when he first made his appearance, man has achieved a great deal. (110 words)

Title – How Man Makes Himself

From his first animal-like existence man developed with the help of a big brain and quick-moving hands and the invention of language and speech. He achieved much by communicating with others and passing on knowledge to posterity. (37 words)

Summary Writing Examples With Answers # 10

Charity is a universal duty, which it is in every man’s powers sometimes to practice, since every degree of assistance given to another on proper motives, is an act of charity; and there is scarcely any man in such a state of weakness that he may not on some occasion benefit his neighbour. He that can not relieve the poor may instruct the ignorant, and he that can not attend to the sick may reclaim the vicious.

He that can give little assistance himself may yet perform the duty of charity by inflaming the ardour of others and recommending the petitions which he can not grant, to those who have more power to bestow. The widow that shall give her mite to the treasury, and the poor man who shall bring to the thirsty a cup of cold water, shall not lose their reward. (143 words)

Title – Universal Aspect of Charity

Charity, being universal duty, must be practised by all and everyone can practice it easily according to his capacity. Apart from money, any help in words or actions like nursing, teaching, or reforming the vicious is charity. Failing to do anything personally may influence others even. (47 words)

Summary Writing Examples With Answers # 11

Religion is based I think, primarily and mainly on fear. It is partly the terror of the unknown and the wish to feel that you have a kind of elder brother who will stand by in all your troubles and disputes. Fear is the basis of the whole thing-fear of the mysterious, fear of defeat, fear of death. Fear is the parent of cruelty and therefore, it is no wonder if cruelty and religion go hand in hand.

It is because fear is at the basis of those two things in this world that we can now be a little to understand things and master them with the help of Science, which has forced its ways step by step against the Christian religion: against the churches, and against the opposition of all the old precepts. Science can help us to get over this grave fear in which mankind has lived for so many generations. Science can teach us no longer to invent allies in the sky, but rather to look to our own efforts here below to make this world a fit place to live in. (186 words)

Title – Science Versus Religion

Fear of the unknown and the wish to get help from other sources in his distress led men to put faith in Religion. Science has made man independent of all this. With the help of Science man has gotten over the fears of unseen powers. As a result, Science is thus undermining the awe and fear of Christianity and the power of the churches. (64 words)

Summary Writing Examples With Answers # 12

Mankind in general is not sufficiently acquainted with the import of the word justice. It is commonly believed to consist only in the performance of those duties which the laws of society can oblige. This, I allow is sometimes the import of this word, and in this sense, justice is distinguished from equity. But there is justice still more extensive, and which can be shown to embrace all the virtues united. Justice may be defined as a virtue that urges us to give to every person what is his due.

In this extended sense of the word, it comprehends the practice of every virtue that reason prescribes or society should expect. Our duty to our maker, to each other, and to ourselves is fully answered if we give them what we owe them. Thus justice, properly speaking, is the only virtue, all the rest have their origin in it. (150 words)

Title – Meaning of Justice

Justice, as commonly understood, means performing the duties approved by society and in this sense, it differs from equity. But justice in the broadest sense implies the virtue of giving everyone one’s due. This includes one’s duty to God and to society as also all other virtues. (47 words)

Lumos stepup - parcc online practice and assessments - 7th grade ela, common core state standard: ri.7.2, domain: reading: informational text, theme: key ideas and details, standard description: determine two or more central ideas in a text and analyze their development over the course of the text; provide an objective summary of the text., archimedes from stories of invention by edward e. hale archimedes was born in syracuse in the year 287 b. c. and was killed there in the year 212 b. c. he is said to have been a relation of hiero, king of syracuse; but he seems to have held no formal office known to the politicians. like many other such men, however, from his time down to ericsson, he came to the front when he was needed, and served syracuse better than her speech-makers. while he was yet a young man, he went to alexandria to study; and he was there the pupil of euclid, the same euclid whose geometry is the basis of all the geometry of to-day. while archimedes is distinctly called, on very high authority, "the first mathematician of antiquity," and while we have nine books which are attributed to him, we do not have--and this is a great misfortune--any ancient biography of him. he lived seventy-five years, for most of that time probably in syracuse itself; and it would be hard to say how much syracuse owed to his science. at the end of his life he saved syracuse from the romans for three years, during a siege in which, by his ingenuity, he kept back marcellus and his army. at the end of this siege he was killed by a roman soldier when the romans entered the city. the books of his which we have are on the "sphere and cylinder," "the measure of the circle," "conoids and spheroids," "on spirals," "equiponderants and centres of gravity," "the quadrature of the parabola," "on bodies floating in liquids," "the psammites," and "a collection of lemmas." the books which are lost are "on the crown of hiero;" "cochleon, or water-screw;" "helicon, or endless screw;" "trispaston, or combination of wheels and axles;" "machines employed at the siege of syracuse;" "burning mirror;" "machines moved by air andwater;" and "material sphere." which sentence best summarizes this passage.

Select right answer

Archimedes wrote nine books about mathematics.

While we know much about archimedes study of mathematics, we know little about his life., archimedes greatest achievement was to protect syracuse from the romans., archimedes was a student of euclid..

Writing Prompts for 7th Grade (This is where you can find the prompts from the printable pdf and discover even more great writing information for your grade 7 child.)

As seventh graders get ready to transition into their turbulent teenage years, it’s incredibly important for teachers to do everything they can to keep their students focused and grounded.  Seventh grade is a very stressful year for many students—they may feel a newfound sense of maturity and pride, but they also will likely feel the burdens of new expectations and greater responsibilities.

One of the best ways to help your 7 th  graders through this challenging transitional period is to show them how writing can serve as a safe outlet for all of their feelings and ideas. 

When students journal, they have the freedom to fully explore their thoughts without interruptions or the fear of judgment from others.  Best of all, they also frequently come to understand themselves, their actions, and their emotions even better when they can trace their journey back on the page.

Let’s Write Creatively

Creative writing sounds inherently as though it should be easy—after all, the word “creative” expresses a sense of freedom and possibility that other, more restrictive forms of writing don’t have.

However, sometimes the lack of boundaries makes it even more difficult to begin writing. Kids are sometimes confused by assignments that don’t have many rules, and they may struggle to begin writing creatively.

The following five tips get the creativity flowing and encourage kids to think outside the page.

1. Promote New Experiences

Encourage kids to pursue other interests besides writing. While it might seem counter-intuitive that the first creative writing tip suggests doing anything but writing, alternative experiences actually promote greater creativity once students return to their desks. Kids who struggle with writing can find inspiration by enjoying their favorite activities and trying new things.

 2. Don’t Worry About Perfection

Perfection is the greatest enemy of creative writers everywhere. When a person writes about things that matter deeply to him or her, it’s only natural to care about the quality of the finished product.

However, people shouldn’t worry about perfection during the early stages of writing.

Junior high students who worry too much about getting a sentence exactly right may become frustrated easily and associate the negativity they feel with writing as a whole. Instead, encourage your kids to write freely at first and to get as many ideas down as possible. They can go back later and correct mistakes during the editing process.

3. Write about What You Love

Though you might be tempted to give students a particular writing assignment, sometimes it’s best to sit back and let them write about whatever they love most.

Encourage your 7th graders to take a general topic and spin it in any direction that interests them. Most kids will have much more to say and will feel more comfortable writing when they are able to discuss familiar and enjoyable topics.

4. Focus on the Senses

Sensory writing is interesting writing—and focusing on the senses can also help students who are struggling to get started. Give your seventh grade writers a setting or situation and ask them to describe what a character experiences through the lens of the five senses. What does the view look like? What noises does the character hear—shouting or the rustling of leaves? Are there any smells in the air? Can the character taste anything—flavored lip balm or perhaps a delicious apple pie? What is the character touching?

5. Set Small Goals

Small, realistic goals for assignments also help kids who are struggling with creative writing. Encourage kids to write for 10 minutes daily or to compose one or two paragraphs. With an end goal in sight, even students who dislike writing will know what they can expect and will have an easier time completing the task. As students get more comfortable with writing, you can slowly increase the length of assignments—and watch as their creativity increases at the same time.

If you enjoyed these 7th Grade Writing Worksheet pdfs and resources, please share them on Facebook, Twitter, and/or Pinterest. I appreciate it!

Until next time, keep on practicing those writing skills with your seventh graders…

How to Write a Summary | Guide & Examples

Published on November 23, 2020 by Shona McCombes . Revised on November 4, 2022.

Summarizing , or writing a summary, means giving a concise overview of a text’s main points in your own words. A summary is always much shorter than the original text.

There are five key steps that can help you to write a summary:

Writing a summary does not involve critiquing or evaluating the source . You should simply provide an accurate account of the most important information and ideas (without copying any text from the original).

Table of contents

When to write a summary, step 1: read the text, step 2: break the text down into sections, step 3: identify the key points in each section, step 4: write the summary, step 5: check the summary against the article, frequently asked questions about summarizing.

There are many situations in which you might have to summarize an article or other source:

When you’re writing an academic text like an essay , research paper , or dissertation , you’ll integrate sources in a variety of ways. You might use a brief quote to support your point, or paraphrase a few sentences or paragraphs.

But it’s often appropriate to summarize a whole article or chapter if it is especially relevant to your own research, or to provide an overview of a source before you analyze or critique it.

In any case, the goal of summarizing is to give your reader a clear understanding of the original source. Follow the five steps outlined below to write a good summary.

You should read the article more than once to make sure you’ve thoroughly understood it. It’s often effective to read in three stages:

There are some tricks you can use to identify the key points as you read:

Prevent plagiarism. Run a free check.

To make the text more manageable and understand its sub-points, break it down into smaller sections.

If the text is a scientific paper that follows a standard empirical structure, it is probably already organized into clearly marked sections, usually including an introduction , methods , results , and discussion .

Other types of articles may not be explicitly divided into sections. But most articles and essays will be structured around a series of sub-points or themes.

Now it’s time go through each section and pick out its most important points. What does your reader need to know to understand the overall argument or conclusion of the article?

Keep in mind that a summary does not involve paraphrasing every single paragraph of the article. Your goal is to extract the essential points, leaving out anything that can be considered background information or supplementary detail.

In a scientific article, there are some easy questions you can ask to identify the key points in each part.

If the article takes a different form, you might have to think more carefully about what points are most important for the reader to understand its argument.

In that case, pay particular attention to the thesis statement —the central claim that the author wants us to accept, which usually appears in the introduction—and the topic sentences that signal the main idea of each paragraph.

Now that you know the key points that the article aims to communicate, you need to put them in your own words.

To avoid plagiarism and show you’ve understood the article, it’s essential to properly paraphrase the author’s ideas. Do not copy and paste parts of the article, not even just a sentence or two.

The best way to do this is to put the article aside and write out your own understanding of the author’s key points.

Examples of article summaries

Let’s take a look at an example. Below, we summarize this article , which scientifically investigates the old saying “an apple a day keeps the doctor away.”

Davis et al. (2015) set out to empirically test the popular saying “an apple a day keeps the doctor away.” Apples are often used to represent a healthy lifestyle, and research has shown their nutritional properties could be beneficial for various aspects of health. The authors’ unique approach is to take the saying literally and ask: do people who eat apples use healthcare services less frequently? If there is indeed such a relationship, they suggest, promoting apple consumption could help reduce healthcare costs.

The study used publicly available cross-sectional data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Participants were categorized as either apple eaters or non-apple eaters based on their self-reported apple consumption in an average 24-hour period. They were also categorized as either avoiding or not avoiding the use of healthcare services in the past year. The data was statistically analyzed to test whether there was an association between apple consumption and several dependent variables: physician visits, hospital stays, use of mental health services, and use of prescription medication.

Although apple eaters were slightly more likely to have avoided physician visits, this relationship was not statistically significant after adjusting for various relevant factors. No association was found between apple consumption and hospital stays or mental health service use. However, apple eaters were found to be slightly more likely to have avoided using prescription medication. Based on these results, the authors conclude that an apple a day does not keep the doctor away, but it may keep the pharmacist away. They suggest that this finding could have implications for reducing healthcare costs, considering the high annual costs of prescription medication and the inexpensiveness of apples.

However, the authors also note several limitations of the study: most importantly, that apple eaters are likely to differ from non-apple eaters in ways that may have confounded the results (for example, apple eaters may be more likely to be health-conscious). To establish any causal relationship between apple consumption and avoidance of medication, they recommend experimental research.

An article summary like the above would be appropriate for a stand-alone summary assignment. However, you’ll often want to give an even more concise summary of an article.

For example, in a literature review or meta analysis you may want to briefly summarize this study as part of a wider discussion of various sources. In this case, we can boil our summary down even further to include only the most relevant information.

Using national survey data, Davis et al. (2015) tested the assertion that “an apple a day keeps the doctor away” and did not find statistically significant evidence to support this hypothesis. While people who consumed apples were slightly less likely to use prescription medications, the study was unable to demonstrate a causal relationship between these variables.

Citing the source you’re summarizing

When including a summary as part of a larger text, it’s essential to properly cite the source you’re summarizing. The exact format depends on your citation style , but it usually includes an in-text citation and a full reference at the end of your paper.

You can easily create your citations and references in APA or MLA using our free citation generators.

APA Citation Generator MLA Citation Generator

Finally, read through the article once more to ensure that:

If you’re summarizing many articles as part of your own work, it may be a good idea to use a plagiarism checker to double-check that your text is completely original and properly cited. Just be sure to use one that’s safe and reliable.

A summary is a short overview of the main points of an article or other source, written entirely in your own words.

A summary is always much shorter than the original text. The length of a summary can range from just a few sentences to several paragraphs; it depends on the length of the article you’re summarizing, and on the purpose of the summary.

You might have to write a summary of a source:

To avoid plagiarism when summarizing an article or other source, follow these two rules:

An abstract concisely explains all the key points of an academic text such as a thesis , dissertation or journal article. It should summarize the whole text, not just introduce it.

An abstract is a type of summary , but summaries are also written elsewhere in academic writing . For example, you might summarize a source in a paper , in a literature review , or as a standalone assignment.

Summary writing is a really valuable skill, but it can be tricky to teach new students. If your pupils are young kids or ESL learners, they may not understand the purpose of summaries, or have some difficulty expressing themselves in a concise way. With a bit of time, patience, and repetition, you can guide your students through the summary process while providing support and encouragement along the way!

Going over the Basics

Did you know? Many teachers use the GIST method when teaching summaries, which involves writing down the who, what, when, where, why, and how of the passage down on a separate worksheet. If you want to take baby steps into the summary process, encourage your students to first write a 20-word summary, or “gist,” after answering these basic questions.

The Guide to 7th Grade: Reading and Writing

Seventh graders are able to focus more on growing the skills they began to develop in the 6th grade without the added stress to adjusting to the new middle school environment. By 7th grade, it is expected that students have acclimated to life as a middle school student and are therefore expected to work more independently and organize their time and schedules with less (but still some) guidance.

In general, in 7th grade, students build on the skills they learned in 6th grade by writing and reading more complex and longer texts and essays. This work will prepare them for 8th grade where they will cement and further their skills, ultimately setting them up for success in high school.

Read on for what to expect this year, and shop all seventh grade resources at The Scholastic Store . 

7th Grade Reading

In 7th grade, students deepen their ability to analyze the texts they read and provide evidence from the text to do so. Specifically, 7th graders learn to examine texts more closely and use details from the text in order to develop ideas, analyze, and make inferences.

In addition, they analyze the relationships between elements within one text and across multiple texts while supporting this analysis by citing evidence from the text.

In order to build reading skills, your 7th grader:

7th Grade Writing

Similar to the work they do in reading, 7th graders deepen their writing skills by using analysis, paying close attention to detail and providing reasons, proofs, and examples for the ideas they express. 7th graders write a variety of genres, including informative pieces, opinion pieces, and narratives and they complete both short-term and long-term writing assignments.

There is also particular attention paid to research and teaching students to do their own independent research and research projects as described below, specifically through the use of digital resources.
