Annotation

We took another crack at annotating while reading to help your student refine their understanding of  text.  We have two symbols we are using - ask your student about them - and we write them right on the text.  Annotation is a record of the students thinking and it helps me to see that they were thinking while reading.  Annotation also helps when we discuss the text.  Students remember what they were thinking at the time.  We then wrote a little about our annotations as I am looking for the deeper questions (ones not answered in the text) and deeper connections (connections with details)

Box projects are coming along!  Ask your student if they need anything from home.

Jersey day tomorrow
