  1. How to Annotate Text

  2. What is Annotation? • Annotation is the act of “talking” to the text as you read it. Though you may not be speaking out loud, you will be writing / taking notes about what you are reading as you are reading it.

  3. Guidelines • Underline or highlight unfamiliar words. Later you can come back and write a synonym or brief definition in the margin. • Underline main ideas; note supporting details with arrows or other symbols to show the connection to the main idea. • For important passages or pages, make brief notes in your own words about the main ideas. • Use numbers to show steps, lists, important details, etc.

  4. Guidelines • If something in the text causes you to ask a question, write down your question and make a comment. • If something in the text causes you to have a comment, write it down! • Finally, create your own consistent method of symbols to use while annotating. • Post-its should always be nearby!

  5. Circle – An important event happens. Circle the page number and the passage and make a note at the top of the page that summarizes what has happened. For example:Charlie visits his mother and sister. That way, if you need to go back and look at that event, you can easily find it in your book.Check mark – A passage confirms what you thought. Put a check next to it and make a note in the margin about why it confirms what you thought.X – A passage contradicts what you thought. Put an X next to it and make a note in the margin about why it contradicts what you thought. + – A passage contains something new. Put a plus next to it and make a note in the margin.

  6. ? – A passage raises a question. Put a question mark next to it and write the question in the margin. Write any too. ?? – A passage is confusing or hard to understand. Put TWO question marks next to it and make a note in the margins about what is confusing you or what you’re not sure you understand. Star – A passage seems important. Put a star next to it and make a note in the margin about why it’s important.

  7. Exclamation Point – A passage is interesting or surprising. Put an exclamation point next to it and make a note in the margin.Box – If a word is repeated, seems important, is unfamiliar to you, or is used in a new way or a way you're not sure about. Put a box around it and make a note in the margin. ONE-LINER – In the top or bottom margin, write one line that tells what happened on the page. In just a few words, briefly summarize the page so that when you look back at it, you remember what it is about.ADDITIONALLY, UNDERLINE EXAMPLES OF LITERARY TERMS! TEXT LANGUAGE – You use abbreviations every day. Utilize them to indicate a passage was funny (lol), surprising (omg), confusing (wth), etc.
