This would make it easier for you to notice what's labeled on your tabs and make it an easier process to put papers in the correct section of your binder. Have your pencil pouch at the very front of the binder, so you can easily access your pencil or eraser at any given moment, without the need of going through your whole binder. Before placing your tabs into your divider, label them with the according classes, such as English, History, Math, etc Slide the tabs into your dividers and make sure they correspond to your classes and have them in order. For example, if you have English first period, have your first tab be for English. (Optional) If you have trouble remembering if you have H.W. in a certain class, have one divider dedicated for only H.W. This would eliminate the risk of you putting your H.W. paper in a random tab. Whenever you get papers from a subject, place them in the according divider labeled with the same subject. For example, place all papers you receive in history in the history section of your binder. Every few weeks or each month, clean out old papers in each of your sections. This would make it easier to find much newer and needed papers from your binder and to stop your binder from overflowing with papers you won't be needing

In the essay “How to Mark a Book” by Mortimer J. Adler, the author explains that “marking up a book is not an act of mutilation, but of love” (1). Adler points out that marking books keeps a reader vigilant to what they are actually reading (2). The author continues on to say owning a book is more than having it sit on a shelf; owning a book means for the reader to make it unique for him or herself, doing so will make reading that much more enjoyable for the reader. Adler also claims that writing small notes or comments as you read helps readers to summarize what they’ve just read, even days later. He says that writing in books allows the brain to store that information deeper into the long term memory making it easier to come back to (2).
Have students put the passage face down on their desk and then read the directions to the students.
To be an active reader is to be able to express yourself in the book one reads. Mortimer J. Adler argues in his article, “How to Mark a Book”, that to be an active reader, the reader needs to actually write in their book; but also to fully claim ownership of their book. According to Adler, there are plenty of ways one can mark in a book; underlining, vertical lines at the margin, asterisk, numbers in the margin, circling or highlighting, writing in the margin at the bottom or top, etc. One does not initially understand what they are reading, until they feel like they are having a conversation with the author. Adler emphasizes marking in a book keeps the reader mentally awake, helps their thoughts become more alive, and also remember later what
In my school, ROWVA Central Elementary, we have a problem of losing our things in our desks. Since we can’t find things in our desks, then a various number of people end up getting late homework and either you have to redo the assignment or earn a zero on it. When you gain zeroes, then your grade immediately goes down and you have to work to get it back up. One solution for this problem is we Another solution is that we could keep our desk organized and remember to keep all the same subject together so we don’t have to dig around in our desks to find what we need. Also, maybe there could be one day where everyone cleans out their desks and takes home any graded papers that they had kept in their folders. We could have everyone make
In my classroom at the school our tables are set up into groups of academic abilities we have higher table who work on their own and have harder work to complete. Then we have middle table who have easier work than the higher table, and then we have lower table who have the easy work to help them understand. Some children in the classroom require 1-1 help so the teacher has set these
The following content areas form the foundation of my yearbook course. They were crafted into a pre-post test as well as educational learning units: Yearbook Terminology, Photography, Writing Copy, Website Tool and Functions, Ethics Responsibility and Student Press Law, Editing and Revising, Marketing
I like to stay organized, and this is especially challenging mentally with the hectic life of a high school student today. I feel calmer when my life is orderly, especially in my thoughts.
Having an organized binder is an important part of the binder check. If my binder is organized I have everything in one place, and everything is easy to find. I should have all my previous notes and assignments. Also, since nothing is in the pockets, I can be sure that nothing will fall out. All of my grades can benefit from having this organization, as it makes everything
A messy binder can be very confusing and overwhelming. Also, there are less papers to worry about. For example, I get very worried when I see a stack of unorganized papers in my backpack, binder, locker, or desk. In addition, when all of the papers are organized, it is much easier to keep track of work. Having different sections and dividers in binders can make school work much easier.
I sat on the floor between my dresser and the wall, clipping pictures from newspapers that had accumulated in a pile next to my dresser, in the corner. My mom wasn’t too happy about my ‘newspaper-hoarding’, as she called it, and had told me that I could only keep travel and science sections of the most recent newspapers in my room. The rest went in the recycling. So I started fishing them out of the recycling bin. I would then search through them to see if there is anything I want to trim, trim it, then toss them back in the bin before my mom noticed. Anything that I wanted to keep to read I stashed in the pile behind my bed. I was sure to read them quickly, though, in case my mom found out about the pile. I paged through a section and saw
To accommodate the flux in student enrollment throughout the year, some schools have created more flexible space within their facility. School architects have discovered using portable room dividers allows school districts to quickly change the look and use of any given space at any time. One company, Screenflex Portable Partitions, even offers clear room dividers to designate a separate space but also allows light and vision into the area. Students have found these clear dividers useful to use as dry erase boards during group discussions and team
Have you ever paid more attention to your binder? Does it break all the time? Well, that always happened to me, with all of my papers falling out and the rings breaking. But now, I use the five inch Case-It binder. The five inch Case-It binder is good because it can hold a lot of materials that you need, and I don't need to use a backpack.
The need to stay consistent with my students as far as Classroom Procedures are concerned is important. I customarily will have the agenda displayed so the student’s can write it down. Occasionally, I will have a free-composition assignment in order to take attendance. I will utilize interactive scratch pad so students can do assignments in the journal and in addition to take class notes. The incentive behind this is to manage all the assignments in one area so they are not looking all over for single sheets of paper. In the scratch pad, students can show their creativeness in outlining a cover page for every unit.
Numerous studies confirm the benefits of using graphic organizers in the classroom in terms of helping students develop and process information. The mere fact this is a method that has been backed by such a strong body of evidence has imbued me with confidence that this intervention will yield positive results. Graphic organizers are a way to help students "grapple with core ideas of the content and develop sophisticated relational understandings of it" (Ellis 2004). They help students to process information as opposed to memorizing and stressing facts (Ellis 2004), which is what history, is predominantly concerned with. Too often when we teach children in our particular content areas we take a Scholar Academic
