UNIT 1 - INTRODUCTION TO BIOLOGY
NOTEBOOK ENTRY: What are a couple of things in the video that made you think? (a picture you didn't know what it was, something you hadn't thought of before, something you thought of differently than you had before)
This will be your first notebook assignment. Throughout this class, you will be adding "entries" into your notebook. These are to be written on notebook paper and labeled appropriately so they can be identified easily. Since this is your first notebook assignment, we are also going to set up your notebook.
For each unit and each objective, you will have a single sheet of notebook paper (you can always add more pages if you need to). You will put the unit and objective at the top of the page. For this assignment, you will have "Unit 1 - Objective A" at the top of your page.
Then as you add entries for your notebook you will label each one. For this entry you will label it "Notebook Entry - Trailer." (Notice that this label matches what it is listed above AND what is listed on your Target Page) After you have watched the video, you will then answer the questions listed above under Notebook Entry - Trailer.
HINT - Notebook entries are meant to make you think. Therefore, if you give me a 2-3 word answer then I know that you didn't think very hard. So when you are making your notebook entries, I am expecting a short paragraph (3-5 sentences). A sentence should be more than 3-4 words too! I want you to have to stop and think about what you are going to write BEFORE you start writing. You will probably have to go back and watch parts of the video again. This first assignment is fairly easy. You simply have to tell me what you thought about during the video. As the semester goes on, your notebook entries will get harder. So get in the habit of writing well now.
I will be looking for notebook assignments when I do your Portfolio Checks. Make sure you have these completed. They will always be listed on your Target Page as an activity you must do AND/OR I will announce them during class and I will have you add them to your Target Page. As we learn how to complete our notebook, I will also add pictures of what your notebook should look like. See the image below as to how to make this first entry in your notebook. And as, always, if you ever have any questions, please just ask! :)
Also - Don't forget... Your syllabus and expectations page should already be in your notebook as your front pages. Your Unit 1 Target Page should be directly behind your syllabus and this should be the page after that (1. syllabus, 2. expectations page, 3. target page, 4. page seen below)
