SNAP Protocol 1. The group reads the text silently, highlighting it and writing notes in the margin or on post-it notes in answer to the following four prompts: S - Summary of the text N - New learning; include as many key ideas as needed A - Information the reader(s) already knew about the topic P - A picture that represents an important aspect of the text 2. In the first round, have each person share a summary or gist statement of the text. 3. Continue in rounds in which the group talks about the text in light of each of the remaining categories.
