Students create interactive notebooks using their notes and knowledge from in-class assignments and lectures. INB pages are given to students at the end of the week, though the unit’s INB pages and examples are made available to you for students missing pages (due to absense or error).

A Powerpoint with online links for readings related to each INB page is available for you to use with your student who misses any notes or activities during days they are not in class.
