Free Scaffolded Reading & Research Notes: Help Students Independently Annotate!
One of my year-long goals is for my students to reach a place where they can independently take and make meaningful notes and annotations while they read. Personally, I prefer to write in my books, but in the classroom, that's not always possible. With this in mind, I put together these 5 Square Notes sheets (kind of like graphic organizers) that walk students through annotation and/or note taking. Each sheet is set up in the 1-2-3-2-1 style, which is a pattern that's easy for students to rememb

Reading to Understand and Remember, close reading & annotating,graphic organizer
Students will complete a graphic organizer as they read non-fiction. Let’s face it--even high school students need help when it comes to reading. Many students are not fully engaged when they’re reading. They’re not used to close reading. I sometimes think that they believe passing their eyes over the words constitutes reading! Because students aren’t fully engaged, the result is they’re just skimming the surface. I like to explain it with this analogy: we only see 1/8 of an iceberg, 7/8 is
