What is an interactive notebook?
a tool students use to make connections, revise their thinking, and to deepen their understanding
shows both the content learned (input) and the reflective knowledge gained (output)
increases student thinking and achievement

What are the benefits of using interactive notebooks?
prepares students to be part of the 21st-century workforce
increases communication between stakeholders
differentiating instruction › Relevant and rigorous
Interactive Notebooks support effective instruction

Why do they work? This notebook style uses both the
right and left hemispheres of the brain to help students:› sort› categorize,› remember› creatively interact with the new
knowledge they are gaining

How do I set up the notebook?
Each notebook has:› A designed cover that reflects the author’s
personality› An author’s page to give ownership› Resource pages
Model, model, model› I modeled the entire first unit› Then, depending on your class, you may
model, model, model as needed

What materials do I need? Notebook
› Spiral or binder Colored pencils Highlighters Glue and/or tape

For each unit Each unit begins with
› A Unit Cover Page› AHA connection pages
Odd numbered pages – teacher input Even numbered pages – student output

To end a unit Two options
› Self Reflection Paper› Research Paper
Students are allowed to use notebook on any assessment

How do I assess the notebook I use a rubric Organizational/management
› No loose papers› Spot check› Student choice
Formative/Summative› AHA – a reflection of what they learned› Self Reflection paper - summative

The Interactive Science Notebook will increase understanding of science by:
Using writing as a way to show thinking and explain reasoning
Allowing students to behave like a scientist Improving their ability to organize ideas
and information to help them study, and build a skill they will carry on to high school
Serving as a portfolio of scientific understanding

AHA Connections Pages These two pages are a spread Provides a place for students to record
the key question and the summary statements about the major concepts they are learning throughout the unit
Most important pages of the unit because they are a reflection of students’ ongoing learning throughout the unit

What is Scientific Inquiry?
pp. 14 – 15
Scientists learn about the natural world through scientific inquiry. They ask testable questions,
design and perform investigations, and use the data
collected as evidence of their thinking. We modeled the work of a scientist with the mystery cube
activity…
pp. 18-19
A good hypothesis must be a logical, testable answer to
a scientific question.
Pp. 22-23
Scientists use the scientific method ,,,

How does a scientific question differ from other types of questions you may ask?
Science Starter Activity
Notes:• The work of a scientist begins with a
question.• A scientific question is one that is
precise and can be answered through…
• Mysterious M & M’s Activity• Observations using all senses• Break open candy and make a
drawing• Complete activity• Record observations in words and
drawings

Self Reflection Students write a five-paragraph
reflective paper about their work during the unit› Count the number of assignments› Choose four that best supports the AHA
Justify choices by giving specific examples why these best support the unit AHA
› Paragraph rating their notebook› Paragraph about the notebook
