Annotation Tips/Strategies:
Make brief notes to mark important plot events.Use check marks, asterisks (*), stars, arrow, etc. to mark
important items or details.Circle or highlight words that are unfamiliar and define them. Highlight phrases that describe or characterize important
characters. Highlight words, images, and details that seem to form a
pattern throughout the text. These patterns usually lead to theme.
Mark passages that you think might be symbolic. Highlight the use of figurative language. If you get an idea, write it down. It could be good starting
point for discussion. DON’T mark everything! If you mark too much, nothing will
stand out and you’ll just be re-reading again.
