Taking notes it is really important. Or at least, that is what every single teacher repeat again and again. But, Have we ever taught the students how to take notes? Is it something that you don't need to learn?
This year I have found an amazing way of teaching kids how to take notes (useful for adults also!!!).
Those are known as Cornell Notes.
Here it is the idea. The students must know all the time what they should learn. So, in the head of the paper they are gonna write the essential question and the objective. The essential question is a question that the students should be able to answer using these notes.
Then the students take the notes of what they think it is relevant, important for them. It is important they do that on their own. The teacher is not supposed to tell them what to copy or not to copy.
After taking notes, they should read them again and divide every idea. After that they should come up with a question related with that specific idea. When they are done, they should make a summary of these notes.
Let's see some amazing example of one of my students:
