What does it take to be a good note-taker? Our third and fourth graders have been busy doing research & used these strategies when taking notes.
- Pay Attention
- Be Organized
- Be Brief
What does it mean to Pay Attention? It means to use your listening, writing, and observation skills when presented with information. How about to Be Organized? It means to utilize organization strategies like using numbers, bullets, & words to organize important information. What about to Be Brief? This means to use summarization strategies to collect only the important ideas.
I hope you find these note-taking strategies helpful and useful.
