My Project
Learning our state standards can be a hard thing for 10th graders to do, especially when passing the state test at the end of the year is a graduation requirement. Why not help to make it more enjoyable by adding a little color to their learning?
Note-taking is a major component of our lessons in English 2.
Having bright paper to take notes on helps students to stay focused on their notes, and also helps them to remember what they are writing down. Anything that gets my students' brains focused and helps them stay on task is a win for my class, and this paper will help them to do just that.
The paper will be used to copy notes, as well as to create anchor charts we use to focus on all the standards. It will also be used to create foldables that reflect the lessons we are working on, helping them to better remember the content.
