NOTEBOOKS…

YAY!

WHAT’S A RESPONSE NOTEBOOK?

• A central location where you will complete all (or most) of your work for class

• Serves as a portfolio• At the end of each

quarter you will evaluate yourself based on your work on the portfolio

• Both you and I will give you a grade on your notebook and we will conference if the grades differ…so be honest!

SO HOW DO I MAKE ONE?• Include a title page and a table of

contents• Date and number each page• Be sure to follow the right side/left side

guidelines

WHAT DO I PUT ON THE RIGHT SIDE?

RIGHT SIDE:

• Teacher directed assignments (Assigned notes, homework, worksheets, study guide questions, etc.)

• Page numbers on the right side are always odd

• REMEMBER: The teacher

is always right and odd

WHAT DO I PUT ON THE LEFT SIDE?

LEFT SIDE:

• Student created activities• Students can design the

left side as they choose• Should respond or expand upon right

side work• Page numbers are always even

version of a work to the film
