Interactive Notebooks Have you ever heard your students say... I can't find my...notes, homework or quizzes... I can't remember what we did in class yesterday. I am sure its in my room....my book bag... Setting Up Interactive Notebooks: How to guide I decided to use Interactive Notebooks for note taking, vocabulary and practice activities. The goal is for students to be organized for the year, prevent work from getting lost, and for students to take ownership of their Spanish Interactive Notebook. So where to begin? After doing some research I modified some of the instruction from Everybody is a Genius blog. I start by having my students create a cover page for their Interactive Notebook. Students create something to personalize their Notebooks with drawings, collages, or photographs representing who they are. We called it "About me". These are the step my students followed as they set up their Interactive Notebook. STEP 1: Front of notebook and first page First page should state student name, class period, teacher name, and have colorful drawings or photos that show what the student is all about. STEP 2: Table of Contents Just like every book out there, there is a table of contents, and we will complete one too! Use the margin lines to create three columns for the date, lesson/title, and page numbers. STEP 3: New vocabulary Four pages were designated for new vocabulary outside from our themes vocabulary. STEP 4: Number all pages Then, students number all pages in their Interactive Notebook. We spent about 30 minutes numbering pages because this step is so important. Otherwise, students become lost and have a difficult time keeping up with their table of contents and left/right side.
Here is an example of the second day of school: Expresiones útiles Students took notes on the right side of their notebooks. Then, on the left side of their Interactive Notebook they drew, color and level three of the most important expresiones útiles they should know in class in Spanish. Here are two examples: Personalizing the vocabulary helped students remember it! I was surprised to see how serious they took this activity and how personal their choices were.
