My Project
Help me give my students all the tools they need to become lifelong learners thru science journaling.
Interactive science notebooks - our canvas - offers a dynamic way for 6th grade students to engage with science content, fostering active learning and improving retention.
They provide a structured format for recording observations, data, and reflections, encouraging students to connect with the material in a meaningful way. The interactive notebook serves as a valuable resource for students to review concepts, prepare for assessments, and revisit information as needed. They need to be well constructed in order to last the students all the way to 8th grade when they will be tested on 6-8th science. Teachers can easily monitor student progress and identify areas where students may need additional support or clarification by glancing at their notebooks. By creating their own notebooks, students take ownership of their learning and develop a sense of responsibility for their academic progress. Parents will also take interest in their students progress as the wonder and discovery of science will be on display. Interactive notebooks allow students to apply their knowledge to real-world scenarios and practice their scientific inquiry skills.
The materials requested will set up for a successful school year.
