Your notebook is the core for your study of science.
You will take notes, make drawings, do in class assignments and test your
learning by means of this notebook. It will become your path which
will lead you to success in science.
It is "interactive"
because you will be using it daily not only to take notes, but also to
revise, supplement and extract key terms from these notes. |

You are to create a custom cover pasting a piece of white paper onto
the existing black cover of the notebook.
The cover should be custom made, using at least four colors and should
contain, the name of the course (Biology, Chemistry, Physics), your name and
at least two drawings of the topics you will cover this year (see the syllabus
for your course). |

The right hand pages
are for input. They are where you take daily notes on lectures, slide
shows, videos, in class reading etc.
The left hand pages are
where you process information (OUTPUT). It will be the place where
you gather information from your notes and use higher level thinking
to help link ideas together. It may also be the place for you to put
key terms, draw diagrams etc.
The left hand pages are also for pictures, diagrams, "t" charts and
other visuals that will help you understand the lesson.
