Notebook

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1: Front Cover

Your Front Cover MUST include:

Your Name

Mrs. Fritts

Class Period

Step 2: Inside CoverGlue the “Lab Notebook Guidelines” to the inside cover.

Step 3: Title Page

The first page of your notebook is your “title page”. Write a title and your name. You may decorate this page to personalize it, but do NOT personalize the exterior of your notebook.

Step 4: TOC

The next 2 pages (front and back) will be used for your Table of Contents or TOC.

There will be 3 columns (use the red lines as dividers): Date, Assignment, & Page.

The TOC pages are NOT numbered.

Step 5:

The next page (4th page in the notebook) will be your “Reference TOC”. This is set up the same as the normal TOC (front and back with columns), but will be used for Reference Materials in the back of your notebook.

Step 6: Number pages

Starting with the very next page (5th in the notebook), begin numbering every page in the upper right hand corner.

Start numbering with “1” and you should reach “96” if you have a 100 page notebook.

Step 7: Reference

Title page 87 (or the tenth page from the back if you have more or less than 100 page LN)
