HOW DOES ONE “ANNOTATE/ACTIVELY READ” A TEXT BY “AP LIT STANDARDS”?

We REQUIRE that along with your reading, particularly if you read these texts long before the term starts, that you “actively” read all FOUR texts take separate “reading notes” which might include some or all of the following:  recording questions, making connections, looking for symbols, tracking plot structure and character development, as well as identifying major themes in the texts.  Be sure to bring your marked-up texts to class!  NOTE!
