Focused Note-Taking by

2024-01-17 01:24:52 UTC

Teaching students how to take notes.

2024-01-17 01:24:52 UTC

Spend time teaching students to precess notes.

I want to start revisiting our notes.

2024-01-17 01:24:59 UTC

..to go through my curriculum and select where focused note taking will benefit students.

2024-01-17 01:25:03 UTC

Implementation

2024-01-17 01:25:05 UTC

direct teach format and think of essential question

2024-01-17 01:25:09 UTC

My first step will be making sure that I am adding the essential question to the notes

figuring out how I can use it consistently

2024-01-17 01:25:12 UTC

Looking at some student samples to present to my students for visuals of fnt

2024-01-17 01:25:16 UTC

I doing it already, but notice I need some modificaitons, like revisiting and summarizing

2024-01-17 01:25:18 UTC

reviewing old notes during current lessons because they know the importance of using it as a reference when they need help with a certain step or topic

2024-01-17 01:25:19 UTC

2024-01-17 01:25:22 UTC

Students not having experience with revisiting notes.

have students review their notes, highlight and connect their thinking to what they have written.

time

2024-01-17 01:25:26 UTC

Step 1

2024-01-17 01:25:27 UTC

Showing students how to take notes

2024-01-17 01:25:28 UTC

create a note-taking template for my students to easily use.

2024-01-17 01:25:33 UTC

2024-01-17 01:25:34 UTC

Students can become overwhelmed with writing.

Finding times when note taking makes sense in K and 1.

2024-01-17 01:25:37 UTC

Student buy-in

2024-01-17 01:25:38 UTC

Hiccup

2024-01-17 01:25:38 UTC

Finding a class to work with. I am a TOSA and do not have a classroom of my own.

Explicitly teaching students how to take notes using 2/3 columns.

2024-01-17 01:25:39 UTC

explicitly teach. model, practice taking notes in 2nd grade

2024-01-17 01:25:41 UTC

... students not being able to revisit because they can't read.

ckadera — 2024-01-17 01:25:41 UTC

2024-01-17 01:25:42 UTC

Carving out additional time to process notes.

Focusing on one subject at a time

2024-01-17 01:25:47 UTC

Making sure student handwriting is legible (for the students) because sometimes they can't read their own writing.

2024-01-17 01:25:49 UTC

Review the different styles of note taking and show students some of the excellent examples provided today.

2024-01-17 01:25:53 UTC

2024-01-17 01:25:54 UTC

after taking the notes I see writing the summary might be a difficult one for students

equivalent fractions

2024-01-17 01:25:55 UTC

Use interactive notebook

Students not using their notes when they worked so hard on them

2024-01-17 01:25:55 UTC

complete note-taking independently.

2024-01-17 01:25:56 UTC

teaching students how to draw and take 'notes'

2024-01-17 01:26:01 UTC

the range of ability in classes making the resource unequal

2024-01-17 01:26:10 UTC

not having enough time because I teach reading intervention and I only have 30 minutes with back-to-back groups to implement things

teaching and practicing how to take notes

2024-01-17 01:26:12 UTC

Having time to provide students so they can process their notes.

Students not being able to follow along in their notebooks.

2024-01-17 01:26:17 UTC

figure out ways to use it in my curriculum.

ckadera — 2024-01-17 01:26:18 UTC

following directions

2024-01-17 01:26:20 UTC

My students have a very hard time following directions and listening.

time

2024-01-17 01:26:27 UTC

Make progress, be ready for the next grade level and be able to bring the skills to the next grade level

2024-01-17 01:26:35 UTC

a better plan of how to make it cohesive

2024-01-17 01:26:35 UTC

time to plan out focused notetaking phase 1 - lots of steps to consider when teaching how to take notes

2024-01-17 01:26:36 UTC

2024-01-17 01:26:37 UTC

Continue what I am doing but show different forms.

Students staying organized and finding their notes.

2024-01-17 01:26:39 UTC

Encourage flexibility with notes and that what works for one student may look different than another. Include visuals and examples to make connections

2024-01-17 01:26:41 UTC

With ELD--perhaps more support for the student output section to help newcomers

2024-01-17 01:26:42 UTC

2024-01-17 01:26:46 UTC

Teaching students what note taking is and modeling what it looks like.

making printed notes to save time for some of the work that is not necessary for them to write down to truly learn the skill or topic

2024-01-17 01:26:50 UTC

Making it a regular part of our schedule

2024-01-17 01:26:50 UTC

2024-01-17 01:26:53 UTC

exploring what might be the easiest and shortest method for students to take notes during reading intervention groups

TIME. Specifically with students who struggle to write ANYTHING. Sometimes its hard to pace when you have fast writers and students who can barely put words together to make a sentence or phrase.

2024-01-17 01:26:54 UTC

2024-01-17 01:26:56 UTC

Writing in phrases/drawing and reviewing notes often

More time for students to practice taking notes independently.

2024-01-17 01:26:58 UTC

using notes to help them answer essential questions

2024-01-17 01:27:00 UTC

Plan it at least once a week.

2024-01-17 01:27:05 UTC

Feel confident independently taking notes and using them as a resource for whatever they may need them for

2024-01-17 01:27:07 UTC

2024-01-17 01:27:10 UTC

... to provide students with a pre-made note-taking template or graphic organizer to help them take focused notes

Taking their own notes.

2024-01-17 01:27:11 UTC

Making sure to go back and model the note taking phases.

... understand what note taking is and why we do it.

ckadera — 2024-01-17 01:27:14 UTC

at least have experimented with different kinds of note taking and to be some steps closer to knowing what works for them

2024-01-17 01:27:16 UTC

I need to make a weekly habit of taking notes on a specific subject everyday. - repetition!

2024-01-17 01:27:19 UTC

2024-01-17 01:27:22 UTC

Will revisit notes regularly

The earlier this is started, the easier the transition from year to year.

2024-01-17 01:27:22 UTC

Weekly Lessons

2024-01-17 01:27:23 UTC

I need t start doing a weekly note taking lesson, so students are exposed to how to properly do note taking

Challenges

2024-01-17 01:27:23 UTC

2024-01-17 01:27:24 UTC

Start to take notes independently

feeling more confident with their ability to take notes and find what's important in the lesson.

2024-01-17 01:27:24 UTC

By end of year

2024-01-17 01:27:39 UTC

Teachers from K-8 will have samples of their focused note taking to their PLC

Using open notes on quizzes so that students see the value of taking quality organized notes.

2024-01-17 01:27:39 UTC

2024-01-17 01:27:41 UTC

be able to take notes on their specific reading skill they are learning using a focused note-taking template

take two column notes on any subject

2024-01-17 01:27:45 UTC

..be able to provide a short summary of their notes/see students interact with their notes and use them as a reference and study tool.

2024-01-17 01:27:45 UTC

students who can't draw straight lines and stay organized.

2024-01-17 01:27:50 UTC

Summarize

2024-01-17 01:27:52 UTC

Use their notes to write a summary

independently complete the note taking process on their own.

2024-01-17 01:27:53 UTC

2024-01-17 01:27:56 UTC

using the notes instead of my reminding them they can take them out to use them.

2024-01-17 01:27:58 UTC

... students not keeping notes.

2024-01-17 01:28:02 UTC

I need to set time apart or assign processing as an assignment.

Knowing how to summarize

2024-01-17 01:28:05 UTC

more comfortable taking/using notes to help them remember and process what concepts they have learned.

2024-01-17 01:28:12 UTC

Changes

2024-01-17 01:28:13 UTC

2024-01-17 01:28:16 UTC

I want students to actually interact with the notes.

My students have a short attention span. Some of my students have difficulty writing/drawing.

2024-01-17 01:28:22 UTC

2024-01-17 01:28:27 UTC

Finding the time to add another thing to half day kinder and also being consistent with it through the year

2024-01-17 01:28:32 UTC

Making focused note-taking a routine activity

time, students struggling with fine motor to produce many nottes

2024-01-17 01:28:38 UTC

See the value of revisiting their notes and interacting with notes for retention.

2024-01-17 01:28:51 UTC

End of Year Hopes

2024-01-17 01:29:07 UTC

2024-01-17 01:29:17 UTC

Adding it to our weekly routine so I can be consistent with it
