Annotation is proven to you help you retain the information you read. It’s a great strategy for all your classes!! • Literary devices that you notice • Character development • Major turning points in the plot • Conflict and resolution of conflict • Important quotes/phrases that stand out to you • Elements of theme • Vocabulary words you don’t know or words you like • Make notes / ask questions in the margins!
