Tips for writings: SUMMARY

A summary includes only the most important information in an article.

PLAN:

Ideas are organised into one cohesive paragraph with simple language. There are no unnecessary examples, details or personal information. Use only about 60 words.

EXAMPLE: Zoos - Then and now.

• Paragraph 1: Zoos first built for entertainment.
• Paragraph 2: Now zoos are changing. Save animals from extinction.
• Paragraph 3: Zoos now planned differently: take into account health and safety of animals and visitors. Educational role is now important.
