Semester Organization
Students will be given a Notebook Table

will fill out the top of the organizer;
student name, unit name, and tentative
quiz/test/review session dates. At the
start of each class, they will fill out the
entries for the day. Students should
organize all activities for the unit in
chronological order. There will not be
separate sections for homework,
vocabulary, notes, etc.
After each test, students will organize
their notebooks, take out the unit

10

materials from the “skinny” binder, and
place them in the “chunky” binder.
Chunky binders will be stored in the
classroom until the end of the semester.
A new Table of Contents will be given
out for the next unit.
Students should save all of their online
assignments to a flash drive and their
Google Docs page. Saving documents
in two places is highly recommended

Preparing for
the Final Exam

guide in the front of the “chunky”
binder.
They will complete the final
exam study guide and take the
“chunky” binder home to study for
comprehensive exam.
