What is your first/initial response to this reading?
Was this a difficult or easy story, poem, and so on for you to engage?
Does the idea, issue or problem/challenge you identify and address in your
current journal entry relate to (or remind you of) one from a previous
reading? Which one? How?
Did your thinking about the story, poem, etc., change after you finished
reading it? If yes, why? If not, why not?
What questions, thoughts or comments do you have about this assigned
reading but do not want to engage at this time in your current journal
entry?
Write those questions down in your current journal entry so you can
access them again when you need/want to engage them.
Make sure to write in your journal every week. You should remember to
date the end of each entry – this will help you keep track of how your
thinking develops about the stories, poems, video documentaries, etc.,
overall.
