During quarter 2 my notebook has once again successfully evolved into something that is and was better than my previous notes. Throughout my time in quarter 2, I found various ways to improvise my own writing and notes. My Q2 notebook has helped me in many ways. For example, it helps me with the test that Mrs.Giknis usually pass out. It also helps me keep track of time/chapter. Moving forward to the future I will try to find new ways to improve my writing and note-taking ability.

My notebook has helped my learning experience because it allows me to jot down my thoughts for a better understanding of what we’re learning. My annotations keep me connected with whatever story we are reading. Going forward, I will continue to keep thorough notes that I can go back to when I need help. Q2 Notebook

During quarter two this notebook helped with retaining the information in class and in born a crime. To improve my notebook I want to add colors and bigger writing to indicate what is important.

What the notebook did for me was make it easier to remember things, not in the fact I could look back, but it helps me mentally memorize it when I write it down. I will maximize my notebook by keep using it the same I have been but taking more note in my book.

In the 2nd Quarter, I feel like my notebook has become an even more helpful tool in English. I feel like a lot of what we’ve done this quarter is reflecting, as well as learning and becoming more aware of identity and the influence of language and race. Because of this, I feel like my notebook has not only become a place where discussion notes and reflections happen, but often now where I store information and resources of how to use Trevor Noah’s unique techniques of writing, as well as notes on examples surrounding race. In the future, I plan to keep this merge alive and continue to have my notebook even more diverse than it has been in the past few months.

Q2 Notebook Flipthrough

In my notebook, I noticed that while I started to take more notes in class, they weren’t really neat and with no context make no sense. So I guess something that I would want to work on is giving my notebook more context and making it neater and more tidy. Even though my work isn’t the neatest, it still helps me learn. For example, if I forgot the definition of the word jargon, I could go back into my book and get the definition.

This is my reflection on how my notes have been coming and my notes on Born a Crime. My notebook has helped me learn by helping me to have something to write notes in so that I can go back later and study them. Moving forward I will write as much as I can in it.

This notebook for Q2 has helped my learning because it helps me express my thoughts through my notes and not always my words. Something else I believe It helps me do is it helps me learn more about things and be able to look back at them in a descriptive way instead of just remembering them inside of my head. I plan to maximize my efforts by being more descriptive in my notes and suggesting different ways of learning throughout my notes. I finally believe I will maximize my efforts by explaining and going into more depth on my notes and their reasoning. I finally believe this has helped me learn because it has taught me the importance of notes and how descriptions are very important more than brain memory of these certain topics. video one and part dos

My Q2 notebook has seriously helped me with all the work we have done. This quarter in particular we did a lot of independent work. The notes I took in class allowed me to get my work done without having to ask for help. In Q3 I intend to do all that and more. I hope to be a little more descriptive in my notes so what I am saying is more identifiable to anyone else reading my notes.

Ya´Minah´s Q2 Notebook Reflection

My Q2 notebook has helped me stay organized with my work, ideas, and class discussions. Even though I noticed a drastic changed in my notes from Q1 to Q2, I feel as though there is still room for improve meant in Q3. In Q3 I hope to stay more consistent with visual note taking and highlighting and writing in pens.

My notebook, as it did last quarter, has helped me keep my class notes and thoughts organized in a place where they are easily accessible. However, there are still many ways in which it can be improved to maximize its potential. Moving forward, I hope to introduce more note taking styles into my notebook and explore a larger variety of visual tools.

This quarter my notebook helped me explain and expand on my ideas on Born a Crime. In the future i hope to maximize its potential by writing more in group discussions and adding more thoughts from my peers.

This quarter we had to write down a lot and well obviously the notebook helped. If we ever needed somewhere to write down a thought this was the place to write it.

My notebook has helped me in many ways this quarter. It has made it much easier to collect data and notes and keep them all in one place. It has also helped me work on my organizing skills and made me neater overall. I plan to keep getting neater and use more arrows and boxes to make my notebook look nicer. I want to take better notes and more descriptive annotations over the rest of the year.

My English notebook helped me learn a lot this quarter it allowed me to hold my thoughts and opinions down in a single place. it also allows me to hold information that I might need to know in the future. I hope to make it contain more information and hold more thoughts of other people’s opinions.

In the first quarter, I had a goal of establishing a good base for my notes. This meant I would use the outline method and my notes would be clean. It was in quarter two I built upon that. In my video, you will see I attempted within my notes to create an organizational system, tried to use more symbols, wrote more unprompted notes, and explained my reactions within annotations. While some goals were more successful than others, my overall growth as a notetaker in quarter two is the most impressive. Click here to watch!

In Quarter 2 I worked on trying to get my notebook in the same format so it would be organized. I did this but my handwriting slowly got worse because of the group discussions. I paid more attention to getting the information down, then how it looked. So next time I want to continue to have a good format and all the notes down but hope it becomes more neater. Next time I also want to get down more of my thoughts during class discussions and to keep working on making class discussions better in my notes. flip-through of my notebook

This quarter, my notebook has grown and become full with thoughtful notes. Aside from given in-class notes, we’ve had both pod and full class discussions, in which I wrote down my own ideas and recorded the ideas of others. My notebook has allowed me to experiment with new note-taking styles and has been a place for me to express my opinions. Moving forward, I want to continue experimenting with all the different note-taking styles we learned in class, and continue using methods I learned in this quarter.
