Close Reading

Print, read  and annotate your article. Use Google to verify?

Annotation:   1. Chunk the text.    2.  Circle key words -- especially if they are repeated. 3. Underline and define any terms you are uncertain of meaning.  4. Left margin: short summary of each chunk. 5. Right margin: use an -ing verb to describe what the writer is doing in each chunk. (Explaining? Describing? Defining? Comparing? Contrasting? Ranting? )

Begin filling out the CRAAP test worksheet on it, as well. Comment on as many of the questions as possible.

Homework:

1. Continue annotating and evaluating your article.

2. TWFTD: your choice from your article.
