My Project

Maybe I'm old school, but I like writing notes on paper. I love a computer and all that it can do, but there is something special about writing down important information and reviewing it later for studying. I would like to teach this skill to my students by providing notebooks for them in my history class.

This project includes plenty of notebooks that my history students can use to take notes and review for assessments.

This skill will prove invaluable as they continue their education after high school or enter the workforce. I believe in taking notes and I want my students to be able to take notes without having to spend money to purchase a notebook.
