Does anyone mark or map their textbooks or reading texts? Or use an  adaption 
of SQ3R that works with a foreign language textbook?
 
This method of the SQ3R includes making flash cards, and gave me a couple  
ideas.

Here is info about textmapping

(http://www.textmapping.org/mapping.html) 
 
 
I had to adapt it a bit but this is what I did. I figured out what the  
chapter objectives were and then seperately boxed the information for each  
objective in a green highlighter. I boxed the vocab table and any other vocab  
information, later on in the chapter, in pink. I circled all paradigms, or  
instructions about paradigms in the back of the book, in blue. I highlighted any  
accent info in orange. I highlighted misc important sentences in yellow.
 
Then I found this info on textmarking a message board.
 
SUBJECT - underline once  
DO- squiggly underline  
VERB - double underline  
ADJ (and GENITIVE of possession) - arrow to noun  head  
PREPOSITIONAL PHRASE - in parentheses (...)  
ABLATIVES (i.e. those without prepositions) -  inside and oval  
DATIVES - esp. if INDIRECT OBJECTS - a line that  is an arrow - doesn't 
matter which way it is pointed  
SUBORDINATE CLAUSE (including RELATIVE CLAUSES) -  in square brackets [..]  
ABLATIVE  ABSOLUTE and other PARTICIPIAL PHRASES - in (what my students call 
'munchies' or  'alligator mouths'...) i.e. <...> 
 
I'm  interested in any study and notetaking skills than anyone uses.
