4th Grade ELA Annotation Guide Graphic Organizers

Upgrade your close reading strategies with graphic organizers! This resource includes 13 graphic organizers that are tailored to 14 4th Grade Common Core ELA standards. 

In previous years, I found my students would annotate passages willy-nilly without any rhyme or reason to what they were paying attention to! I use these graphic organizers when annotating texts to help my students annotate with intention and really understand and comprehend the text. 

This resource includes: 

• 13 Graphic Organizers that support these 14 standards: 
  • RL.01 & RI.01 Literature and Informational Inferencing
  • RL.02 Theme
  • RL.03 Characters, Events, and Setting
  • RL.04 Figurative Language & Context Clues
  • RL.05 Poetry, Drama, and Prose
  • RL.06 POV
  • RL.09 Comparing Theme
  • RI.02 Main Idea
  • RI.05 Text Structure
  • RI.06 Primary and Secondary Sources
  • RI.07 Text Features 
  • RI.08 Author’s Reasons & Evidence

You will love how these graphic organizers transform your ELA close reading lessons!
