Summary!



We are starting to learn how to write summaries. This video clip was used in class to teach the students the components of a summary. The clip illustrates  how stories can be condensed to show the main ideas and a few details. This amazing clip summarises the famous Star Wars movies into 5 minutes of film from about 11 hours of total film time.
