“It is like my own textbook!” - LW “I know that if I open it up to a blank page then I am missing something important from class. I want to know what I missed and can check Ms. Simons’ notebook.” - KR “I like having just ONE thing.” – GW “I like using my ISN because it keeps everything organized and in the same place. All I have to do is take out my notebook and check my table of contents to find where I put a worksheet or class notes. ISNS also allow students to be creative and color in diagrams and drawings.” -AR
