Reflection
Over the span of the semester my chemistry teacher assigned presentations related to our project to try and help us learn how to take notes. Taking notes has never been something that I struggled with wether it was during or presentation by other students or if it was a teacher talking to a class. I think that I am able to stay focused when somebody is talking and that I can hear things that are important and shorten them and copy them down into my notebook.
I think that something I could work on that would help me stay more focussed would be working on my handwriting. When I look back in my notebook I leave a lot of space for different things and make sure that I can tell what is apart of which problem but sometimes when my handwriting gets messy or I'm in a rush then I tend to try and write faster and then everything becomes messy. I think that if I worked on that and tried to just take my time than my notebook would look a lot better.
To make sure that I don't forget any assignments I will write down any assignments and the due dates that my teachers announce on my phone and my notebook to make sure that I don't forget anything. I will also check Edmodo occasionally which is something that my school uses as a platform for announcement and collection of any work.

Chemistry Notebook Reflection
Throughout this year in my chemistry class we had a lot of things that went into our notebooks. One thing that took up a lot of space were the warm up questions which we did everyday. These were to either refresh us on things we had already done or show us how to do something new. On the right is one example of a warm up question. This was good example of how I stayed organized. I tried to make sure that I spaced things out to make sure that I knew what everything was. Something that I tried to make sure that I always did was space everything out so I would be able to look back and see what goes with which problem. One thing that this class definitely helped me with was taking notes. Because of the classes I have had in the past there hasn't been to many times that I needed to take notes from a presentation. This class helped me get a bit more of an understanding on how I would be able to do something like this better in the future. I was also able to go back and see how somethings looked and see if I could understand what I wrote when I needed it
