Annotation is a conversation the reader has with the text in order to find meaning, to understand purpose, and to gain knowledge.
Color-coding with commentary (thoughts, questions responses)
Using symbols
Arrows to make connections
Drawing to visualize a thought and call your attention to the passage
Circling, underlining, squiggles, and boxes w/comments
Images, charts, and graphs also need annotation
Annotation is a necessary skill to master because you are in partnership with the text. It is through this method you will show your learning and understanding either orally or through your writing.
