Reading Workshop Lesson 1: Reading is thinking . Good readers stop and think Good readers develop certain habits of mind such as: Q= Asking questions of what they read C= Making connections ( T-T, T-S, T-W) to support understanding I= Inferring meaning ( Reading between the lines) Conc= Drawing conclusions S= Making personal statements in response
Annotation (See Handout) To annotate is to make notes about what you are reading. Reading to learn demands a strategic approach like annotating. We now know good readers stop and think. These thoughts become the annotations. The annotations become fuel for insight into what you are reading.
