Article of the

A.o.W.
  {   News You Can Use
What is Article of the
Week? (A.o.W.)
       1. At the beginning of each
         week, you will receive an article
         to read.
       2. You will have to read the
         article, make comments on it, and
         write a reflection.
       3. Both the article and the
         reflection are always due
         Thursday.
You will be learning how
     to “annotate” an
     article.

    Active readers do this.
     It simply means to
     “take notes in your
     text.”



A.o.W.: Write on it?
Annotating helps you
     Stay focused while you read!

      Involve you with your text!

      Monitor and improve your
       comprehension.




Why annotate?
What will I need?




      Since you are writing on your
       text, you will need a pencil.
How to annotate
While you are reading the
 Article of the Week (A.O.W.)

   Underline important terms
   Circle Definitions and
    meanings
   Write key words and
    definitions in the margins
While you are reading the Article
        of the Week (A.O.W.)

       Signal where important information
       can be found with key words or
       symbols in the margin.

How to annotate

While you are reading the Article of the Week (A.O.W.)

   Write short summaries in the margin at the end of a
    chunk of text.

   Write the questions in the margin next, questions you
    have, and any ideas that occur to you.
How to annotate

While you are reading the Article of the Week
  (A.O.W.)

   Indicate steps in a process by using numbers in
    the margin.

How to annotate


   While you are reading the Article of the Week (A.O.W.)

   Add comments about connections you to the
    text, questions you have, and any ideas that occur to
    you.
Turning in your
Article of the Week


On Thursdays, you will submit the article itself.

Your teacher will check your annotating:
 How much did you write on the text (A.o.W)?

 How much thinking is shown in the annotating?
Turning in your
article of the Week
As a general rule:
 The more writing on the text and in the
  margins, the better the grade.

   Neatness counts! If your teacher can’t
    read your annotating, then there is a
    problem.

   Use a pencil; inky mistakes show that
    you don’t care about how you represent
    yourself through your work.
Turning in your
Article of the Week
What can bring this grade down?


Don’t bother turning it
 in.

(A.o.W.) is a weekly grade which
 significantly affects your overall
 mark.)
Turning in your
article of the Week
What can bring this grade down?


     Turn in a weak product that
    is barely annotated.

Why bother doing anything if you don’t put
 forth your best effort. You are
 annotating because you need to! You are
 doing what “good readers” do!
Turning in your
Article of the Week

What can bring this grade down?

Do only one part of the
 A.o.W.
(Your grade reflects your effort. Doing
 partial work will earn you partial
 credit, like a 50 percent.)
Turning in your
article of the Week


What can bring this grade down?

   Don’t worry about really thinking about
    the A.o.W. Just write anything at the
    last minute.
But, along with the annotating, you
      must turn in a one-page written
      reflection about the A.O.W.

       Handwritten or typed
       Neat
       One full page




Turning in your
Article of the Week
Turning in your
Article of the Week


Your one-page reflection may include any
  combination of these:

   Give a general summary of the article

   Refer to some questions and comments that you
    annotated in the margins.
Your one-page reflection may include
      any combination of these:

       Your stance of why or why not you
        agree with the author

       Your favorite part of the article
        with an explanation of why you
        liked it



Turning in your
Article of the Week
Turning in your
Article of the Week


Your one-page reflection may include any combination of
  these:

   Explore some of the questions raised by the A.o.W..
   What else does the article relate to?
   Can you make a personal connection to the A.o.W.?
We will start in small steps.

     We will be doing several formative
       examples in class before it becomes
       a weekly summative grade.

     By the end of the year, you will be
       selecting your own articles to
       share with the class.




Don’t worry. Be Happy.
