Critical Note Taking 
Critical Note Taking
This rubric is used to evaluate the quality of notes taken during analytical reading. These should NOT be summaries of the text but contain thoughts, comments, feelings, and questions about the texts that the student reads. They should look for and note things that seem important to them. Students should tell what they think and feel and how they connect to the story.
