6. Taking Notes We’re going to take notes a little differently than you remember. We’re going to create an interactive notebook. Whenever you take notes have your notes open to both pages.

7. Taking Notes Cont. We divide our notes into two sides. The left hand side of the notebook is for your thoughts, ideas, drawings, reactions to what we are discussing. It’s a way for you to make meaning with what we’re writing. The right hand side of your notebook is for traditional notes that we take. All testable material will appear on this side. As you take notes use either numbers or a lettering system to stay organized.

8. Taking Notes Cont. Here’s an example I.Why immigrants left Europe between 1865-1910. A. Political Reasons B. Economic Reasons 1. Looking for work in America. 2. Fleeing poor conditions in Europe. C. Primogeniture = oldest son gets it all! D. Adventure Enneking’s Question: Should we restrict immigration more today? On the one hand, I agree with this statement. The U.S. already has too many people. It makes it hard to give a fair amount of jobs to native workers. On the other hand all of our ancestors we’re immigrants at one time…. Primogeniture- Left SideRight Side

9. Turning in Papers All papers need to be turned in on clean white paper, no spirals. Write in blue or black ink or pencil, or better yet, type it. Follow the heading guidelines Name Class Period Date
