Thank You!

NOTES Taking Forms

I'm excited about these new notes forms I made up today. They should help kids keep track of things that we learn about in my classes.These are based on the Cornell notes taking system which is pretty renown for being very effective. I usually have chapter-specific notes outlines that I use in Civics, but highly motivated and college-bound or TAG students may want to try these as an alternative. Making them available might also be a useful option for when you're absent.
