Foldable Notes Designed to further engage students in the mapping of

their math learning

Can be used effectively to present new information and/or to summarize content

Might just reinvigorate your practice

How does one “make” a Foldable Note?

Here’s what you need:Source of inspiration - Colleague, friend, mentor

- Pintrest, Social Networking, etc.

Creativity Willingness (courage?) to take a risk

The basic steps:1) Brainstorm the “need to know info”?

2) How can that info be clearly mapped, organized, engaging for kids to create?!

3) Is it interactive?

Your turn!Your task: Create foldable note that could be used as an instructional tool for your students.

1. Choose a topic: Slope

Types of angles

Derivative/Integral rules

FUNCTIONS

2. Brainstorm the

“need to know info”

3. What could kids create?

4. Is it interactive?
