Class Experience

Annotating is a key strategy to help students connect on a deeper level with the text and comprehend what they are reading. This is a key strategy and lifeskill used to pick key details from the text. In this one time class students will learn specific guidelines on how to mark up a text for higher level understanding. We will specifically focus on learning how to highlight, what to highlight, and how to avoid highlighting everything. 

I will teach this class in a very modeled structure following the "I do, we do, you do" method. Instruction will be scaffolded as we work through each paragraph of the article being read together. This class is created for students who are just learning how to annotate. 

Class structure:
Introductions/Objectives (3 minutes)
Annotation Introduction/Guidelines (5 minutes)
Read/Model/Practice Annotations of Article Given (22 minutes)
