Today we completed and reviewed Mod 2 of an SAT practice test. We addressed the proper use of transition phrases and the note summarization questions. As Kaitlin had questions about solving the note summarization test questions ,I provided strategies : critically focus on the question; many of the answers accurately summarize the notes but do not answer the exact question which may ask for a summary that emphasizes a difference, or a summary that introduces a topic to an audience not familiar with the subject of the passage. Using this technique ,we reviewed the specific notes and discussed why to eliminate those notes that are not responsive to the specific question.
