Cornell Note Taking Process

Here is a photo of Angelina's Cornell Notes.
Cornell Note Taking Process:
Draw a line from the top to the bottom of the page about 1/3 from the left edge of the paper.
Write the topic in the upper left hand corner and the date in the right hand corner
Take notes to the right of the line
Compare notes with another student and write in your notes what you missed.
Create questions that correspond with the notes, so you have the question on the left side of the line and the answer on the right side of the line.
At the bottom of the notes draw a line from the left side to the right side of the paper.
Below the line write your summary which should include who, what, where, when, why.

When you are finished with this process you will have interacted with the material 4 times. That is the point of the Cornell Note Taking process.

Today in both the 9th and 10th grade classes we finished the note taking process. We also practiced taking notes from a text.
The students turned in both sets of notes.
9th graders had their binder check with only some small complaints from the grader, Ryan.
