Above are my annotations for Sponsors of Literacy by Brandt. Throughout the reading I found that the method of color coding was the most helpful. My main focus was trying to understand her concepts and apply them to Gee’s concepts. I did that by using the color green. When I though that a concept of Brandts was similar with Gees I would highlight it in green and explain why they related to each other. This reading was advanced so I did have quite a few questions throughout the reading. When I had a question about a claim or thought I would highlight it in orange as a conflict and then ask my questions in the margin with a pencil. The key of annotating is being organized and being able to determine key thoughts that the writer it getting into, so when I recognized a key point I would highlight it in pink. If I had a explanation I would then explain it in pink so the reader of my annotations would understand why I thought it was a key point.
