Triple Entry Journal
For each assigned chunk of reading, you will need to complete a Triple Entry Journal. Your
Triple Journal is a space for you to note your interactions with texts, helping you to identify
stand-out quotes, clarify what the author is saying, and share your reactions. It’s a useful
activity because it sets you up to help ensure you are reading actively and interacting with text
and gives you practice with skills that you will need as a college reader and writer.
Steps to creating a Triple Entry Journal
Triple Entry Journals have three (3) columns.
1. In the left column, select a quote from the text that is powerful, interesting, confusing, or
instructive – basically any quote that really stands out to you. Always include the page
number from which you selected the quote.
2. In the middle column, write what the quote is saying. Here you are paraphrasing what the
quote says. A paraphrase is a restatement of an author’s ideas written in your own words. It
is more detailed that a summary.
3. In the right column, respond to the quote in some way. Your response might be:
● Question: A thoughtful question generated as a result of quote.
● Analysis: A possible explanation or thoughtful response (analysis) of the quote.
● Confusion: A discussion of your confusion about the quote. What do you know? What
do you not know? What is confusing about it?
● Connection: A personal or intellectual connection. How did this make you feel? How do
you relate to it? How can the larger society/community relate to it?
● (Dis)Agreement: An explanation of your agreement or disagreement with the quote
and/or author.
● Comparison: A comparison and/or contrast of the quote with another text or your
outside knowledge
● Prediction: A prediction based on evidence. What do you think is going to happen?
Why?
There are other responses you can make. You can use the Active Reader handout as a guide.
Each response must be at least a full paragraph (of approximately 4-5 sentences). For each
response in the right hand column, label what kind of response it is. For example, if you are
making a connection, write “Connection”. If you are asking a question, write “Question”. Over
time, notice the kinds of responses you are having. You goal is to have a variety of responses,
within and across your various Triple Entry Journals.
For each assignment, you must select at least 4-5 quotes. Your Dialectical Journal must be
typed.
Dialectical Journal Rubric
To determine whether or not you will earn full credit on your Dialectical Journal, ask yourself,
“Did I…”:
include at least 4-5 quotes from the text?
accurately copy the quote and include page numbers?
label each type of response and incorporate a variety of types of responses?
respond in an analytical way, going beyond just the surface of the quote (i.e., doing more
than mere summarization or restatement of the quote?)
develop my response, writing a minimum of 4-5 sentences?
type and proofread the assignment?
submit the assignment on time?

Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates (pp 125-150)
QUOTES

“But the Dreamers have
improved themselves, and the
damming of seas for voltage,
the extraction of coal, the
transmuting of oil into food,
have enabled an expansion in
plunder with no known
precedent. And this revolution
has freed the Dreamers to
plunder not just the bodies of
humans but the body of the
Earth itself. The Earth is not
our creation. It has no respect
for us. It has no use for us. And
its vengeance is not the fire in
the cities but the fire in the
sky” (150).
“The Dreamers” have learned to turn
natural resources like the sea and
crude oil into things they can use,
which has led them to abuse the earth
to get these resources. This new ability
to convert natural resources means
that “the Dreamers” have taken
advantage of both humans and the
earth. But the earth doesn’t depend on
humans in the way that humans
depend on the earth. So if “the
Dreamers” keep abusing the earth, the
earth will just disintegrate on its terms,
not human terms.
Analysis: What Coates is saying here is really important to
our world today. Around the world, major countries,
including the U.S., are polluting our world and ruining it.
Unfortunately, the current U.S. administration has backed
off the commitment to preventing climate change. Over
90% of scientists agree that humans are contributing to
climate change, but greedy business and politicians try to
refute this, not because they don’t know better, but
because they want to keep making money for themselves.
But I don’t understand why their love for their children and
grandchildren doesn’t stop them from leaving a polluted
and harsh world to live in. This is NOT a political issue; it is
reality. Maybe that’s why there is more effort to try to
explore Mars – as a “back up” planet if we make Earth
uninhabitable. This is a selfish, immature, and ridiculous
plan!
