10. Engaging the Reader Four strategies designed to enhance reading skills and develop metacognition: 1. Previewing [& Guided Questions] 2. Annotation [Chunk it!] 3. Summarizing4. Graphic Organizers (National Reading Panel Report, 2009). No Reading Strategy Left Behind

11. Previewing Previewing engages the reader before reading the text. Show students how to browse the material to get an idea of what the text is about (Walton, 2006). No Reading Strategy Left Behind

12. Previewing a Text Engages the reader with the structure of the text prior to reading. McWhorter, K. (2012). Reading Across the Discipline: College Reading and Beyond, Fifth Edition. Saddle River: Pearson, 2012. 35-37. Print. No Reading Strategy Left Behind

14. Annotating the Text & Marginal Notes Text annotation and marginal notes engage the reader during the reading process. Apply effective coding skills, monitor comprehension, and continually make connections between reader and the information (Wangsgard, 2010).

15. Annotating the Text & Marginal Notes Form of content analysis in which students mark up elements of the text such as main ideas, argument structure, connections between visuals and vocabulary (Herman & Wardip, 2012). Active [reader’s] strategy that encourages engagement, comprehension and synthesis (Holschoh & Aultman, 2009).

16. Ways to Annotate Text • Think about what you want the symbols to express/represent while students are actively reading a passage that you would assign. • Determine 5-10 symbols to use. Be as consistent as possible. • Snapshot of chunks of the passage. • As often as possible, model strong marginal notes, have students to practice engaging with the text using marginal notes, and assess. Text Annotation Symbols Marginal Notes
