More Than Just Highlighting: Using Annotated Reading to Connect All Readers to Text

Explore Annotated Reading as a purposeful reading strategy that connects with the strategic instruction anchor of the five Anchors of Differentiation. This session links all students (students with needs, gifted and typically performing students) in a tier 1 setting with a purposeful, teacher guided strategy to increase comprehension of narrative and information text across grade levels. Learn appropriate annotation strategies for students ranging from kinder to 12th grade that will support reading comprehension of complex texts. View videos of your Utah colleagues using annotation skills in their classrooms and align your classroom needs to the core standards. Use resources connected with instructing annotated reading that you can take to your classroom today.

  • Participants will demonstrate conceptual knowledge of annotated reading as a strategic instruction differentiation strategy to benefit all learners in a tier 1 setting through examples, research, demonstration and video models.
  • Participants will explore and categorize specific annotated reading actions for narrative and informational text across elementary and secondary grade levels.
  • Participants will choose one standard from their grade UCS ELA standards that can be addressed through annotated reading and choose 2-3 narrative or information annotated strategies to instruct with a classroom of students.
