Paraphrasing Strategy:
Skim the article first, then:
- READ only as much as your hand can cover.
- COVER the words with your hand.
- RETELL Write down the important or main ideas from what you have just read
If you need to double check a fact or detail, take another look AFTER you write down what you can remember
Search Term Suggestions:
- Remember: Google will find exactly what you ask it for.
- If you are feeling stuck, try changing the search terms to find different results. Some ideas:
- search their name plus a specific event they organized, place they did their activism at, law they worked to pass, etc. (like: Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. March on Washington)
- search the name of your activist AND the main idea of the box you are trying to take notes in (like: Malala motivation to fight)
