  1. Interactive Notebooks, EasyPlanner and SmartBoard Software Kymberly Riggins HS for Law Enforcement & Criminal Justice HISD Spring Math Summit 2009

  2. What we have:

  3. What We Are Hired To Do:

  4. What We End Up Doing:

  5. Frustrating • A lot of Work • Students won't do their part • Administrators don't understand • Parents aren't helpful  • ..... • But we keep plugging away

  6. What I realized: • My students’ goal is not to learn but to put forth the least amount of effort and work. • If my students don't understand the material in class, then they label it "too hard" and thereby excuse themselves from learning and resort to lazy work or cheating. • My students are disciplined at taking notes but they do a horrible job at keeping track of or using their notes.

  7. Various "AHA" Moments: • Teaching does not imply learning. • My job is not to teach, but to get my students to learn. • My students need to learn to be students. I should train my students to use and depend on their notes and not on me. • Interactive Math Notebooks

  8. Interactive Math Notebooks • History Alive's Interactive Student Notebook • A personalized textbook / working portfolio (notes, assignments, etc. -- in one convenient spot) that the students create. • A way for teachers to easily enforce student responsibility. • Absent Students • Special Education and ELL Students • Students Questions & Tutorials • Parent/Teacher conferences

  9. Interactive Math Notebook Right side pages : learn-able content • from the class notes • from discussions  • from textbook's notes Left side pages : processing content • Do-Now (warm up) • Independent Practice problems • Graphic Organizers (Frayer models, Foldables, Venn) • Glue Assignments and Test Corrections

  10. How I organize my IMN: pg 1: Title page & essay about math. pg 2: Grading rubric for the notebook. pg 3 - 9: Table of Contents pg 10 - 11: Course TEKS pg 12 - 13: Mathematics and Formula Chart pg 14: Course Policies/Procedures pg 15: TAKS Objectives Blueprint pg 16 - 33: Each TAKS objective has a page pg 87: Essay on how they will improve pg 195: Skill Chart

  11. Same notes, same page Student engagement & organization Notes will be used! Assessment tool The gift that keeps on giving. Every year you don't have to re-invent the wheel. Lost Notebooks Stolen Notebooks Damaged Notebooks New students Teaching students to study Labor intensive for the teacher Pros                     "Challenges"

  12. EasyPlanner & SmartBoard Software

  13. Teacher Benefits: • You do not have to (repeatedly) write out the notes, examples and problems. • You can pick and choose what you want the students to have in their notebook. • You have a saved version ready for a different class and for future years. • Digital copy of Interactive Math Notebook

  14. Uses: • Cut and paste digital sections of Notetaking guide, Practice Workbook, and Textbook onto pages in the SmartBoard Notebook file. • Interactive Math Notebook pages are in one file.  • Assignments and examples are in a separate file. • I export the SmartBoard Notebook file to a pdf format and upload them to the class Wiki.
