Active Reading Reminder!

Greetings, AmLit Scholars--

Please, please, please remember that we read two ways:

1. We read secondary texts (background readings, bios, etc) to collect terms (P/P/T/I).

2. We read primary texts to locate the most important parts AND annotate those parts with our reasons for selecting them. Remember: we're trying to help our future selves!

I'm not sure what happened, but many of us are doing wa-ay too much work that won't really help us!

Thanks-

Mr Leo
