Annotation and Note-Taking Techniques

Making the Most of Your Notes

Effective annotation helps you remember key details and spot patterns in Latin texts:

  • Highlight verbs, subjects, and objects in different colors.
  • Jot down meanings and grammar notes in the margins.
  • Draw arrows or diagrams to show sentence structure.

Why It Works

  • Visual notes boost memory and understanding.
  • Helps you quickly review before tests or essays.

Examples

  • Using symbols to mark poetic devices in a passage.

  • Color-coding noun cases during translation practice.
