18 What to do with Young Goodman Brown: Keep up with it.  You will not receive another.  If you lose it, you will need to find a way to print your own. Annotate it.  I will take up your story and grade you on your annotations.

19 Annotation Tips/Strategies: Make brief notes to mark important plot events. Use check marks, asterisks (*), stars, arrow, etc. to mark important items or details. Circle or highlight words that are unfamiliar and define them. Highlight phrases that describe or characterize important characters. Highlight words, images, and details that seem to form a pattern throughout the text.  These patterns usually lead to theme. Mark passages that you think might be symbolic. Highlight the use of figurative language. If you get an idea, write it down. It could be good starting point for discussion. DON’T mark everything! If you mark too much, nothing will stand out and you’ll just be re-reading again.
