today's learning target is that I can determine a central
- 00:03 - 00:06
idea of attacks and analyzes development over the course of
- 00:06 - 00:08
the text and provide an objective summary.
- 00:09 - 00:12
So these are our guiding questions for the standard.
- 00:12 - 00:15
So number one, what key idea and the does the
- 00:15 - 00:16
author introduce and develop?
- 00:17 - 00:20
What specific details of the author used to convey or
- 00:20 - 00:23
show this idea in the last one is what details
- 00:24 - 00:24
and facts must.
- 00:24 - 00:27
A summary of the text includes to remember that does
- 00:27 - 00:29
not include your opinion or judgment.
- 00:31 - 00:33
So let's break this standard down into three separate parts.
- 00:34 - 00:36
The first one is to determine the central idea.
- 00:37 - 00:38
So what is a central idea?
- 00:39 - 00:43
Remember that it is a dominant impression or the universal
- 00:43 - 00:45
generic truth found in the story.
- 00:46 - 00:48
So what does the author want you to take away
- 00:49 - 00:49
as the reader?
- 00:50 - 00:53
So sometimes the other does this by stating it directly,
- 00:54 - 00:57
and you you see it directly in the text.
- 00:57 - 01:01
Sometimes it's indirect, meaning that it is only implied or
- 01:01 - 01:05
suggested. So if it is interact, the readers must examine
- 01:05 - 01:09
the details and draw conclusions about what the author central
- 01:10 - 01:10
idea is.
- 01:11 - 01:14
So think about it as linked to the author's purpose
- 01:15 - 01:16
or reason for writing the text.
- 01:17 - 01:19
What could the reader take away?
- 01:19 - 01:22
And how could it be applied to all readers that
- 01:22 - 01:24
going back to that universal or generic truth?
- 01:25 - 01:26
So how do we do that?
- 01:27 - 01:30
Well, we can consider the hens that are provided in
- 01:30 - 01:34
the title images captions for background information, and we can
- 01:35 - 01:38
also generate all possible ideas and themes after reading the
- 01:38 - 01:41
text. But we need to ask yourself is readers which
- 01:41 - 01:45
one from the text is most fully developed and we
- 01:45 - 01:48
see throughout the beginning the middle and the end, So
- 01:48 - 01:51
we can also look for words, phrases or images that
- 01:51 - 01:55
keep on coming up throughout the text That might signal
- 01:55 - 01:58
that they're the central idea, so that could be through
- 01:59 - 02:04
details, dialogue phrases that are related to that central idea
- 02:04 - 02:04
throughout the text.
- 02:05 - 02:07
So how did the components evolve over the course of
- 02:07 - 02:11
the text or build or change so we could look
- 02:11 - 02:13
as readers at the beginning of the story?
- 02:14 - 02:17
We could say the author is implying this about this
- 02:17 - 02:21
overall central idea, but then we could use the Senate
- 02:21 - 02:25
cider, then suggest this so we see it changing and
- 02:25 - 02:27
evolving. But it's still around that same idea.
- 02:28 - 02:30
And then finally, we see at the end.
- 02:31 - 02:33
The author is saying this at the end of the
- 02:33 - 02:37
text so it could be were choice imagery, figurative language,
- 02:37 - 02:40
any of those examples the author is using and developing
- 02:41 - 02:42
it from beginning to end.
- 02:43 - 02:45
And our last car is about an objective summary.
- 02:47 - 02:49
So remember it is written up in the present tense.
- 02:49 - 02:50
It should be concise.
- 02:51 - 02:53
It should not equal the original length of the text.
- 02:54 - 02:57
We should avoid using our own opinions, ideas or interpretations.
- 02:58 - 03:00
We need a really sick to what the author is
- 03:00 - 03:05
saying. We want to accurately represent the author's words and
- 03:05 - 03:08
thoughts, and the last one is to focus on those
- 03:08 - 03:10
major events or central idea of the text.
- 03:10 - 03:14
We don't want to include those minor details, so that
- 03:14 - 03:16
is a strong, objective summary.
- 03:17 - 03:20
And if we can follow those three steps, we will
- 03:20 - 03:21
come for the standard.
- 03:22 - 03:23
Now let's go to the next video.
- 03:24 - 03:26
We are applying the standard to a text
