Guidelines for an effective summary/response:
A paragraph of summary of the work (a poem, narrative, or novel chapter): What was it about?
2) A paragraph of personal opinion of the work: What are your thoughts about the work?
So a summary/response should be at least one full page in length, typed, double-spaced.
Quote the work 2 or more times
