Notebook

Purpose:
Notebooks help students practice important organizational and study skills. Each student must have a three-ring binder specifically for their US History II course. This notebook should accompany students to class each day. Notebooks will be collected periodically for a grade. These collection dates may or may not be announced.

Organization:
You will need ~10 notebook tab dividers. Notebooks will be organized by unit. Each unit will be a self-contained, chronological collection of materials by chapter. Additionally, you will need a section for our outside projects and current events. Be sure that all items are secure in the binder rings, not pockets! All items not secured in the binder will not be eligible for grading purposes.

Materials to be Included:
 * Cover Page- Either in the outside cover or as the first page of your notebook.
 * Outside Projects Tabs:
 * Book Review Assignment,
 * Mini Projects,
 * Oral History Project
 * Independent Research Project
 * Current Events & Story of the Week Tab
 * Unit Materials Tabs
 * Homeworks (Guided Readings)

Note:
In case of absence, all materials will be stored in the clear yaffa block in the classroom. See classmates for missing assignments and notes. Additionally, lesson materials are posted on the wiki. Handouts and activities are posted whenever possible, copyright laws sometimes prevent posting of all materials. It is your responsibility to obtain all missing materials prior to notebook collection!
