Additional Annotation Ideas

So, say you don't like writing in your books, another way you can annotate your text is using post-its. I like the smaller flag post-its while annotating my books. For the summer work, you could use different colors to represent different concepts you are required to find. For example, you may designate the blue post-its for Skeeter's narration. You may use yellow for setting. You may use purple for theme, or you may use green for symbolism. The possibilities are endless! I usually get a big pack of the post-its and have them handy while I'm reading. So, when I am ready to write my summer work assignment, it's easier for me to go back to what I have annotated or "flagged" as theme. Again, annotation is not a requirement, but it is a very helpful tool and time saver! I have provided some pictures of the post-it flags I use along with what my current book that I am reading looks like. Hope this helps! Happy reading!
