    Annotating an Article<\/em><\/strong>
    What does it mean to annotate? Annotating means to make notes as your closely read, and analyze any piece of writing. Another way to say annotate your text is \u201ctalk to the text\u201d.<\/strong>

    Below, I will list things that you should make sure that you are doing when you annotate; and also, some mistakes that people make all the time while annotating.

    Expectations:<\/strong>
    1.Put your name on the article.
    2. Read with a pencil\/ pen in your hand.
    3. Circle any unfamiliar or infrequently used words or phrases. (Guess and write the definition in the margins using context clues).
    4. Underline at least six sentences or points the author makes that are interesting to you. You must then respond using textual connections:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    a. Text to self:<\/strong> Put yourself in the other person’s shoes or situation. What would you do, think,feel, etc.
    b. Text to text:<\/strong> Connect this article to something else you have read (a book),heard(radio\/news),or seen(T.V. Show)
    c. Text to world:<\/strong> Connect this to the society that you live in. How does the topic of the article apply to today’s society? Explain.
    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Common Mistakes:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Underlining sentences without proper annotation.
    2. Making only one-word comments (\u201cwow\u201d, \u201cnice\u201d, \u201csweet\u201d is not acceptable).
    3. Putting \u263aor \ud83d\ude41 without explanation.
    4. Annotating only half of the article.
    5. Writing comments on a separate sheet of paper and attaching it to the article
    6. Adding inappropriate language (slang, rude comments, bad words).
