You have two options for the following notes:
- Annotate on a printed copy, adding notes, clarifications, examples, related doodles, and questions. Secure it into your notebook.
- Copy the notes into your science notebook, organized in a way that makes sense to you. Include notations, as above.
Absent? If you are unable to get a paper copy before next class, you may make an electronic copy and use comments to make annotations.
