Week 1 - Journal Reading Notebook

Each week you will practice active reading and annotation. The Reading Notebook is part of this practice and consists of a template you will fill out and submit to Waypoint. This week, the Notebook focuses on what to do before, during, and after reading. In addition to practicing active reading and annotation, these notebooks are meant for you to determine how you prefer to annotate.

This week, you will practice steps that should be taken before, during, and after reading. You will read and annotate The Declaration of Independence (Links to an external site.).

• Go to the link The Declaration of Independence (Links to an external site.).
• Annotate the document either by printing it out, saving it to your computer, or taking notes separately on a Word document or in a notebook.
• Fill out the Week 1 Reading Notebook Template and submit to Waypoint by Day 7.
