Cornell Notes
When taking notes, use the Cornell Two-Column format.
Draw a vertical line about an inch from the red margin.
Label the left side of your vertical line "keywords" and the right side of the vertical line "notes."
When taking notes, write any keywords, questions, or topics on the left hand side. Keep all other notes on the right hand side.
When you have finished writing your notes, draw a horizontal line under your last topic and write "summary" underneath the line.
Write a summary of the lesson at the bottom of the page. This should be a short reflection or "ah-ha" moment of content you have learned.
