I am asking my students to take a little more responsibility for the organization of their notebooks.  I have told students that they may use a binder or a folder to keep themselves organized.  Rather than take up notebooks for "notebook checks", I will ask to see certain "important papers" that they should keep in order to help them study for upcoming assessments.  This page will contain a running list of what I will ask to see for each check.  I will announce "check-up" dates at least one class period prior to collecting!
