Students learn about the purposes and techniques of annotation by examining text closely and critically. They study sample annotations and identify the purposes annotation can serve. Students then practice annotation through a careful reading of a story excerpt, using specific guidelines and writing as many annotations as possible. Students then work in pairs to peer review their annotations, practice using footnotes and PowerPoint to present annotations, and reflect on how creating annotations can change a reader's perspective through personal connection with text.
Objective:
Students will:

-examine and analyze text closely, critically, and carefully.
-make personal, meaningful connections with text.
-clearly communicate their ideas about a piece of text through writing, revision, and publication.
