Description

Class Experience

Annotation means to take notes about a text while reading. Annotation helps students interact with a text, read with purpose, show their thinking on the page, and dive into a deeper understanding of a text. Ultimately, I want to help students be more skillful readers, both in school and in their personal lives in the future. 

Join me in my class as we define the word “annotation,” discuss the importance of annotation, examine examples of different annotation methods both on paper and...

This class is taught in English.

Objective: By the end of class, students will be able to explain annotation and provide an example.

I am a certified teacher with eight years of classroom teaching experience in middle and high school English as well as my master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction.

Learners should have paper and pen/pencils available. If learners have access to highlighters or colored pens/pencils, please have those ready as well, but they are not required.

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:"I'm Nobody! Who are you?" by Emily Dickinson

30 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.

We will read and annotate a short poem called, "I'm Nobody! Who are you?" by Emily Dickinson.
