Rubric Students will be graded on the following: • Organization/neatness • Class work/thoroughness • Creativity… use of colors, graphics, designs
How does the INBK work? The notebook uses both the left and right hemispheres of the brain to help students sort, categorize, and be creative with the knowledge they are acquiring. This process helps students “own” the knowledge they are taking in and giving them the responsibility of learning.
