Today in Humanities, Mrs. Cassaro taught a lesson on taking notes, the next step in the research process. We talked about the characteristics of good notetaking and then we practiced highlighting and taking good notes from an informational article. We concluded that good notes:
-summarize the important information
-are neat and orderly
-are easy to read
-get the main ideas
-do not plagarize
-stay on topic
-can be in any form as long as they follow the above criteria
Then, students took out one of sources that they had collected for their topic and took notes from this source.
HOMEWORK: Students are to write a sentence with each of this week's vocabulary words. They are to bring in tomorrow at least a 1/2 page of notes taken from their source.
