Annotation with Purpose! Comparing and Contrasting Sonnets begins with a refresher on annotation but goes far beyond for your Grades 6-13 students.
Annotation has traditionally been used to increase critical thinking about texts, and as an entry point for writing about how a text works. This is only ONE of the reasons why annotating, close reading and reader response criticism was adopted and favored at the university level.
