Greetings, Gary :)

So, I was always told that an essay usually had to contain more than three paragraphs, whereas a summary had to be at least three sentences.

So, when writing a summary, you would not use the same rules as writing an essay, but they'd be pretty similar. In summary's and essays, you have to put down complete ideas and sentences, as well as having correct grammar.

For an essay, you have to write an introduction, body, and a conclusion, but for a summary, all you would have to do is write what the general idea is. 

*Remember to always use correct punctuation, because most professors and teachers take off points if they see incorrect spelling. 

~Hope I helped!~

Ummarizing something is like paraphrasing it.

Making it smaller while still holding the general gist of something.

People generally summarize when they are taking notes.

An essay is a longer piece of work that is written on a topic from the author's point of view.

Thesis in the hate u give?​
Nesterboy [21]
Khalil’s shooting and the ongoing investigation of Officer Cruise put the theme of injustice at the forefront of the novel. The fact that Khalil was unarmed and did not threaten the officer makes his murder unjust. The police are unjust at other points, too, such as when they force Maverick to the ground and pat him down. Race is tied into this theme of injustice as well, since pervasive racism prevents African-Americans from obtaining justice. Starr and Maverick in particular are focused on bringing justice not only for Khalil but also for African-Americans and other oppressed groups, such as the poor. The activist group that Starr joins is called Just Us for Justice because it fights against police maltreatment on the basis of race. At the end of the novel, Starr accepts that injustice might continue but reinforces her determination to fight against it.
