Notebooks Day 2: Right Side Vs. Left Side



Notebook Grading Rubric, inside cover
Left side and right side handouts, pg 4 and 5
Today in our notebooks we learned that the left side of the notebook will always contain assignments that are directed by the student and are often self-generated from a list of ideas found on pg 4 in your science notebook.  The right side contains the teacher generated information from lecture notes, foldables, graphic organizers, video or web notes, lab procedures, readings, and other sources of information.  This is described in detail on pages 4 and 5 of your notebook on the pink and salmon handouts.  We also began the discussion of notebook expectations and add a rubric on the inside front cover of the notebook.  Notebooks will contain all of the students daily work and will count for 20% of the students grade.  The notebooks are grade weekly via peer review and once a unit, on test days, by the teacher.  We ended  class by creating a cover page for our first unit on pg 12.  We will be studying the major organ systems of the human body.  Students cut out an outline of a human body and attached it to page 12 in their science notebooks.  Students also titled page 12, Human Body Unit, and dated the page 9/8/14.
