Annotation Instructions
One annotation strategy is to mark the text with symbols that signify certain types
of observations. Annotation codes and symbols:
1.
Put a question mark next to a section you’re questioning (?).
2.
Write in the margin at the top or bottom of the page to record questions
(and perhaps answers) that a passage raises in your mind.
3.
Use an exclamation point for areas that remind you of another text, strike
you in some way, or surprise you (!).
4.
Star ideas that seem important, or may support your thesis writing later
(*).
5.
Box or circle words and phrases that you do not know or that you find
confusing. Rewrite a word or phrase you might have figured out.
6.
