3 Math Interactive Notebook For the entire school year, we will be using an Interactive Notebook. The interactive notebook is more than a notebook in which to take notes. It is a way of collecting and processing information. It will replace your math textbook. The Interactive Notebook uses a right side and left side to help you organize your learning. The right page includes traditional class assignments: notes, worksheets, etc. The left side is a place for you to process that information. Purpose: focus on today s activity Examples: pre-test, quick-write, demonstration, T-chart Purpose: reflect or apply today s activity Examples: content or lab questions, quick-write, summary, diagram, graph Interactive Cafe Purpose: information from today s activity (learning) Examples: textbook or lecture notes, vocabulary, lab procedure & data, worksheet, concept map Implementation Notebooks can be kept in your binder or stored in the classroom. Bring it to class every day. It will not be in your best interest to lose it. Number the pages sequentially. Do not remove any pages. Both right and left pages should be numbered. It is important that all of us have the same information on the same page. The first pages are reserved for a table of contents, and instructions. Other information will be included as appendices. Use color to help organize your information. Handouts, foldables and other papers should be glued or taped in place. No staples. You will need other supplies: markers, glue stick, tape, ruler, pencils, colored pencils Notebooks will be graded weekly using self, peer and teacher checklists. Compiled and Created by Lauren Kubin

4 Interactive Notebooks are characterized by RIGHT SIDE Input and LEFT SIDE Output! Left Side Characteristics Colorful, creative, unique to student, demonstrates understanding, entered on even numbered pages, date and subject title at top of each page Right Side Characteristics Content and concepts of curriculum, notes in Cornell style, teacher or text driven, entered on odd numbered pages, date and subject title at top of page Left Side Examples Poems Vocabulary Cartoons Word Puzzles Analogies Graphics Sketches Practice problems or examples Paraphrases Pictures Articles Lyrics to a song Web information Memory tips and techniques Brainstorming Concept maps/flow charts Study plan Reflections Goal setting Communication with parent/teacher Right Side Examples Lecture Notes Daily and homework assignments Tests Quizzes Lab activities Hand outs Vocabulary Assignments Focus or warm-up activities Foldables Pre-lab notes Book notes Graphic organizers Film notes An Interactive Notebook gives students a place to: Set Goals Plan Study Strategies Document Learning Track Success

6 Student Handout/Display Master 1.1b Taking Cornell Notes Some Tips Level 2: sort, infer, analyze, sequence, organize, solve, explain, compare, contrast, classify, isolate, characterize, make analogies. Level 3: conclude, criticize, reorganize, justify, judge, estimate, predict, speculate, make a model, extrapolate, apply a principle, interpret, hypothesize, if/then Topic Note-taking Strategies Name: Class: Period: Date: Study/Review Questions How can you use the speaker s style to identify important points? How can you keep-up with the speaker? Become familiar with the speaker s style. Listen for important points that might be emphasized when the speaker: Pauses or slows down Repeats a point Modulates the volume of her/his voice Uses introductory phrases (e.g., The four main points are or Note the relationship ) Writes on the board Gestures or uses visual aids Write only the important ideas such as name, examples, terms, definitions, effects, evaluations, cross references: make it brief, but clear. Use abbreviations for familiar words. Speaker says: An altitude of a triangle is the perpendicular segment from a vertex to the opposite side or the line that contains the opposite side. An altitude can lie inside, on, or outside the triangle. Notes say: Altitude of is from vertex to opp side or line containg opp side. Can be inside, on or outside How should you use your notes to review? Use notes to review: Develop study questions and identify the main ideas. Fill in details for clarity. Look up and add to the definitions of new words/terminology. Identify information that is unclear and/or questions that need to be answered; write and mark them so they can be easily found; get answers to the questions from other students and/or the speaker. Add symbols to highlight important ideas and key words. Delete irrelevant information. Review the overall organization of the material: add symbols to make the organization clear or rewrite for clarity as needed. Write a summary of the significant ideas. Connections, Summary, Reflection, Analysis: Three important note-taking strategies are reviewed in the notes. Identifying important points and main ideas, using abbreviations to paraphrase information provided during the class and the use of notes for review are outlined. The important cues in identifying main points and the use of questions to help with review are particularly helpful strategies as is the writing of summaries. 4 The Write Path I: Mathematics Student Guide
