  7. Notebook links classroom and professional world “Writing is how we think our way into a subject and make it our own.” William Zinsser, author of Writing to Learn

  8. Goals • Science • Design and conduct scientific inquiry • Math • Solve relevant, authentic problems

  9. 21st Century Skills • LITERACY! • Global awareness • Problem solving • Collaboration • Creativity • Communication

  11. Ways to set it up • Entry • Title & date • Purpose • Materials • Procedure • Results • Conclusion • Notebook • Instructions • Table of contents • Numbered pages • Chronological *Consider a school-wide format?

  12. Interactive format Purpose: focus on today’s activity Examples: pre-test, quick-write, demonstration, T-chart Purpose: information from today’s activity (learning) Examples: textbook or lecture notes, vocabulary, lab procedure & data, worksheet, concept map Purpose: reflect or apply today’s activity Examples: content or lab questions, quick-write, 3-2-1 summary, diagram, graph

  13. Using notebooksSo much to consider . . . • Teacher driven • Student driven • Journal • Portfolio • Individual • Collaborative

  14. And more to consider . . . • Type of notebook • Composition book • Loose-leaf notebook • Lined paper/graph paper • Writing tools • Pencils/pens/highlighters/markers • Stay at school or take home • Feedback
