Before reading the novel Annie John, students will be asked to give their general impression of what the novel will be about based on the title. Students will be asked to record their responses in their journals. Students will then be asked to observe the illustration on the book and give their opinion of the person based on how she is portrayed in the illustration. Student will then to the back of the book and read the summary provided. Students will be asked if they have encountered any similar experiences.
Students will then read the first paragraphs of the novel. Having done this, they will be asked to identify the character (s) that they are first introduced to and record this in their journals. Students will then be asked to predict what role this character will play in the novel. Student will continue reading and then stop after the first two pages. There, they will be asked identify some of the traits of this character. Students will then draw a semantic map to represent the traits of that character. While students continue reading, they will begin to add more traits to their semantic map.
