My Project

They always say you never stop learning and I truly find that statement to be true. This year I decided half-way through the year to provide students with guided notes and they LOVED them! What we found though was organization was key!

Individualized Note Folders will allow students to receive a folder with the guided notes in them and a place to keep the rest of the notes for each individual chapter we cover in Precalculus.

Students are already climbing a huge uphill battle with the learning losses they experienced through the pandemic, and the guided notes really seemed to help them focus and stay organized.

Students will receive a different folder for each chapter with the printed guided notes in them for the entire year in Precalculus. I am learning changing our teaching techniques offers students opportunities to grow as learners and myself to grow as a teacher!

Please help my students next year start off the year with a bang!
