Summarizer

Summarizer: Your job is to write and then present a summary of the events that happened in the passage that the group decided to read prior to the meeting. Using your written summary as your guide, you will remind people in your group what the passage was about. In addition to writing and presenting your summary, you will need to bring a thinking question to the group, a question that prompts the others to think beyond the facts of the passage. It is also your job to look for places where you disagree with others in your group.
