Great Resource
Rated 5 out of 5

This was a wonderful resource and a great addition to my classroom! It was well-organized, easy to implement, and kept my students engaged throughout the lesson. The directions were clear, and the materials aligned well with my instructional goals. I appreciated the time it saved me in planning while still providing meaningful learning opportunities for my students. I will definitely be using this resource again and look forward to exploring more resources from this creator. Highly recommend!

I have heard of the strategy from a former collage towards the end of the school year. While I didn't quite get all that was involved, I'm thankful for your resources. My students are getting the concepts behind SNOTS and even laugh at times when I say "SNOTS".

Thank you so much, Colleen! I think SNOTS can be used in whatever ways work for learners and their teachers. Jotting down Small Notes On The Side engages readers in thinking critically about texts. This resource is simply my take on SNOTS. I'm happy it's helpful, and thanks again!

Thank you for your kind feedback, Cassandra! Another teacher told me about the annotation acronym SNOTS so I quickly created this project. I'm so happy this handout is helpful to your students.
