Why a notebook?• Notebooks offer a place for students to
capture their thinking. A place to call their own.
• In writing, notebooks provide a place to experiment and take risks.
• In reading, notebooks serve as a collection spot for a student’s thinking about his/her reading.

• Encourages students to be “personal, individual, and real as they take notice of themselves and their world.” (Rief, 2007)
• Allows students to see growth
