C. Interact with the text

Annotating free writing and illustrating are strategies that help readers or writers engage more deeply with the text. Annotating can include activities like underlining or highlighting key phrases, writing questions or comments in the margins, or summarizing sections of the text. Illustrating can mean drawing pictures, charts or graphs that represent ideas or themes from the text. Both of these strategies facilitate an interactive reading process, promoting better comprehension and retention. They can also support the other options, such as understanding dialogue (A), questioning the narrator (B), and making inferences (D), but at their core, they are about interacting with the text.
