My Project
This year we are engaging in deepening our understanding of grammar and the mechanics of writing. With the many online chat AI tools, it is still imperative for students to have a command on the English Language in order to effectively incorporate technological software.
Binders provide a comprehensive approach to integrating technology with traditional learning methods while emphasizing the importance of foundational skills in English language and organizational habits.
This structure (with 3 hole punch folders & divider tabs) can help students build a comprehensive resource that they can use throughout the year, fostering both academic skills and personal growth.
The binders help me to quickly assess students' understanding of topics covered and provide them with consistent updates while encouraging students to update their binders regularly, especially with new material and reflections. Regular binder checks ensure students are keeping their materials organized and up-to-date. The tabs will be used to divide and organize their skills in the following way:
Cover Page
Include the student’s name, class, and a space for personal goals.
Table of Contents
