11. The notebook is divided into TWO sections.
 The Left SIDE “LOVES” student work.
This is the side that you can use to show me
your creativity. This is the “output” or
product side. We call this is “WIO” or
“Work It Out” Section.
 The Right side is “RESTRICTED” and
contains only information given by Ms.
Tinder. We call this the “WOW” or
“Words of Wisdom” Section.

“review” what we learned the day before or
“process” new ideas to help introduce a new
topic

quickly before a test or quiz because
