I am looking for at least 4 post it notes that contain/comment on one of the aforementioned ideas located on your Book Annotating handout. You will use at least 1 sticky note to identify a quote that supports one of your chosen themes. The full theme will not be visible to you until you finish reading.
- Your 5th post it note will be a “power line”.
- What is a “power line”?
- A “power line” is a sentence or a couple of sentences that contain figurative language (simile, metaphor, onomatopoeia, understatement, hyperbole, alliteration, verbal irony, etc.).
- These are called “power lines” because they make the writing more powerful.
- This particular post it should be titled Power Line so that it is easier to find when you are asked to share.
- Your “power line” is NOT a literary element (foreshadowing, dramatic irony, plot, setting, conflict, etc.)
- When we finish Night, you will add all of your sticky notes to notebook paper for your next Notebook Check (L13) -But not until we finish reading. All sticky notes go inside your novel.
- 5 sticky notes min.= 1 for your chosen theme, 1 for Power Line, 3 for any other significant annotating elements as mentioned on your handout
