6. Formatting of Notes: (3) “There is no one correct one way take notes” (Marzano, 46). 1. Informal Outline ~Structure ~Sequential thinking

7. 2. Webbing: ~the larger the circle, the more important the idea ~lines connect ideas together ~Visual representation ~limits the amount of verbiage

8. 3. Combination Notes ~Uses some informal AND webbing note-taking ~Begins the summary process as notes are being taken ~Allows students to process the information 3X
