What is it?
A personalized textbook
A working portfolio of your classwork and homework, as well as your personal reflections on these things
What is the purpose of it?
Be a creative, independent thinker, writer, and learner throughout the year
Express your own ideas and apply the “stuff” we’re learning in class

5. Hello notebook! We use both sides of each page We number each page
We create a table of contents, like a book!
There are pages in the beginning, much like the preface in a book, where you’ll put important things you’ll need all year
I will tell you what page to use every day in class, so we’re all “on the same page” ALL the time!
EVERY PAGE GETS A GRADE!
