Do you have your students annotate their readings? I was frustrated by their randomness and lack of connection to previous work or knowledge. I will share my assignments from this week where I hope they improve their note-taking.

I have my students write annotations on post its or in margins. We call it bits n pieces. 

Hi Lisa Meyers ! Yes- I was encountering the same issue when I only made articles available digitally. This year, I’ve reverted back to printing class articles and extended reading pieces so that students can annotate. When we are reading books, I hand out post it notes so that they can still annotate as they read along.
