A1: I mostly use INBs for mini-lessons. #2ndaryELA

literarymaven - Moderator Feb 21 @ 8:10 PM EST

A1 I haven't used IN. Recent hands on activity was having students organize sentence strips to outline an argument essay #2ndaryela

slobodzianm Feb 21 @ 8:11 PM EST

A1: I want to have the Ss create sketch notes, but I have had a hard time implementing this and would love to see ideas. #2ndaryELA

A1. It's my first year, so I haven't used one yet. I want to do this next year. #2ndaryela

have you tried #Seesaw #2ndaryela

In reply to @slobodzianm

tgorosave Feb 21 @ 8:15 PM EST

A2. I have noticed that students take pride in their work when they use ISN. They prettier a page, the more they review it. #2ndaryela

lsloving11 Feb 21 @ 8:15 PM EST

A2: Seeing the students pull out their notebooks at the end of the year review sessions is priceless! #2ndaryela

missweibler Feb 21 @ 8:16 PM EST

A1: Would like to incorporate interactive notebooks more effectively...right now I only utilize some foldable for note taking. #2ndaryela

teachnouvelle Feb 21 @ 8:17 PM EST

A2: I love that Ss can reference pages over and over, throughout a unit. To learn the parts of the stage, Ss created a map. #2ndaryela

Mrsutterreads Feb 21 @ 8:17 PM EST

A3: How do you “plan” your notebook? I tired sections and it flopped but I found if I didn’t plan the pgs it was a mess #2ndaryela

teachnouvelle Feb 21 @ 8:17 PM EST

- What is your strategy for planning units in the notebook? #2ndaryELA

In reply to @tgorosave

SaraSourire Feb 21 @ 8:19 PM EST

A3 continued struggles: students who need extra time to cut/paste/color - can cause them anxiety. #2ndaryela

missweibler Feb 21 @ 8:19 PM EST

A2: Our incoming sixth graders struggle with knowing how to study for tests. Interactive notebooks provide tools for them! #2ndaryela

A3 continued struggles: supplies, supplies, supplies! #2ndaryela

teachnouvelle Feb 21 @ 8:20 PM EST
