Repetitive poetry is a simple, yet great teaching strategy to practice the main idea and summarizing text. First, students write between 4 to 8 simple sentences that summarize a passage. For chapters 1-2, students might write something like this:<\/p><p>Salva daydreams while his teacher drones on.<\/p><p>A cracking sound alerts the class.<\/p><p>\u201cRun to the bush, not home,\u201d the teacher warns.<\/p><p>Salva walks and walks meeting up with friends.<\/p><p>Soon, rebels gather all the men.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bec29f5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"bec29f5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Next, the students think of a sentence or a phrase that would express the main idea of the text. This sentence is repeated between the lines.<\/p><p>Salva daydreams while his teacher drones on.<\/p><p>Problem comes.<\/p><p>A cracking sound alerts the class.<\/p><p>Problem comes.<\/p><p>\u201cRun to the bush, not home,\u201d the teacher warns.<\/p><p>Problem comes.<\/p><p>Salva walks and walks meeting up with friends.<\/p><p>Problem comes.<\/p><p>Soon, rebels gather all the men.<\/p><p>Problem comes.<\/p><p>Poems can be read interactively. The author reads the summarizing statements, and the class repeats the repetitive sentence in between each line.
