Read The Dew Breaker (the entire collection-novel). Then, prepare an annotation of it.

The Annotated Reading and Critical Response assignment has sixcomponents (format your annotation with these headings):

1. Ask Questions;
2. Make Comments;
3. Draw Connections + Conclusions;
4. Paraphrase Significant Passages;
5. Identify Key Points in the stories (you will need to re-type this section as I cannot view the items you choose to underline and highlight); and
6. Identify and Define Vocabulary.

Note: Here are two examples of this assignment -- these students only commented on the first three stories. Please do not utilize their awarenesses -- these are only guides; they have errors as they are actual student examples.

2. Sample Student Annotation 2(2).pdf

Note: Do not forget to respond to two of your peers’ annotations

1. Make sure to make connections between your responses and their own; your experiences and those revealed in the text; and, the general clarity of the ideas presented.
