Today we looked at some examples of plot summary of the Red Headed League. These were student written and most had several flaws of either content or style or both. There was 1 example of a good plot summary organized well and complete. Students were given the text of the flawed summaries and instructed to rewrite them into 1 well organized and complete plot summary. Some people felt they could do better starting from scratch so that was acceptable. The rough copy is due today. Good copy due Thursday. Study for your quiz on sentences and Exam on Friday.
