First, what is an Interactive Notebook? It is a notebook (spiral 120-page or bound 100-page) used to organize information for a specific subject area. The teacher determines how it is setup, organized, and managed.
Why should I use an Interactive Notebook in my class? It teaches students to organize information as a resource, accommodates different learning styles, instantly builds a Math portfolio of each student's work, and makes students take ownership of their learning process.
Where do I start this Interactive Notebook journey? Right here.
