Annotating Text: The Giver
The way that I decided to annotate was to mainly focus on the information that was important in contributing to the story and what made it come to life. For example, some of my main topics would include the feelings or reactions of characters that reveal character traits.(highlighted in blue) The second topic I focused on was details about the community and the people in the society, (highlighted in yellow) The third category was a section for any signs of foreshadowing in the story as well as any questions I have regarding what was happening in the story.(highlighted in green) Lastly, I had a section for random information that I found interesting in the chapter.(highlighted in pink) Overall, this process was not as hard as I thought it would be but I found it hard to understand what the story was about but at the same time annotating. My preference would be annotating after I have finished reading the chapter.
