ANNOTATION
Annotating is a skill that most students think they know how to do it properly, but actually only do one or two steps of what annotating really entails. After doing a bit of research, I felt that these steps are a good way to start the habit of effectively annotating.
Assignment: Read & Annotate "Killers in Pajamas" - bring notes to class for class evaluation and group discussion and assignment.
