  1. … so how do we do that? To start with, I expect for your notes for my class to be CORNELL NOTES, which means that they follow a specific format.

  2. To start with, you need to set up your lined notebook paper the right way:

  3. FIRST, we fold the paper. There is one 2 ½ inch column (it’s okay to estimate) on the LEFT side, and a second larger column on the RIGHT side. When we write, we will need to have a small space at the top for your HEADER and TITLE and a 2 inch space at the bottom for your SUMMARY.

  4. Now, add your HEADING and TITLE at the top. NAME DATE PERIOD TITLE OF YOUR NOTES GOES HERE

  5. Now, we will take notes on the CONTENT in the RIGHTHAND column, using telegraphic sentences: • Telegraphic sentences means: • a.      Key words only • b.      Omit unnecessary words • c.      Ignore rules of grammar • For example, if I say “The young boy in the story likes to eat fruit, especially bananas and cherries.” you might write: • Boy eats fruit – bananas/cherries.

  6. After class, you will go back and write questions on the LEFTHAND side of your paper to correspond with your notes. • Questions help to: • Clarify meaning • Establish continuity • (help you to make connections between material) • c) Strengthen your memory. • … they also help you prepare for tests and quizzes!

  7. You will also go back and write a SUMMARY at the bottom of the page. This will help you to RECALL what you have learned later on.

  8. You’re NOT FINISHED! RECITE (cover the right side, ask yourself the questions, answer them aloud) REFLECT (ask yourself… why is this important?) REVIEW (spend 10 minutes a week to review all of your notes)

  9. Now… We’re going to review Parts of Speech  Remember, you are expected to use CORNELL NOTES… go ahead and take out a sheet of paper and get it set up. Use your sample paper if you need it as a reminder!
