Chapter notes that I took during reading Part I of Trevor Noah. I would classify these as teacher notes. I might give them to students who need prenotes or missed class but mostly I used these to display while we read and listen to Trevor Noah reading his novel. I displayed these on the overboard so that students could see to copy them. I focused on chapters, themes, literature devices, and unknown vocabulary.
