Commentary


Today, I am sharing more notes from my modern fiction class.

Types of Commentary
(commentary is good because later you can look back and see what you thought about a specific passage.)
* questions
* connect one thing to another
* evaluate what is happening or how the author is writing
* predict
* clarify

All of these will help you remember what you were thinking when you read something. It is good to use when you have to write a paper on a book, or when you just want to remember more about what you read.
