Note making is a skill that helps you learn from different sources of information. Here are some points to explain it:
-
When you make notes, you write down the main ideas or important facts from a text, a lesson, a video, or anything else that you want to learn from. You do not write everything, only what is necessary. 📝
-
You can use different ways to make notes. You can use pictures, symbols, keywords, or short sentences. For example, if you are reading a story about a girl who loves dancing, you can make notes like this:
-
Girl’s name: Anna
-
Hobby: dancing 💃
-
Problem: injured her leg
-
Solution: practiced hard and recovered
-
You can also use different formats and tools to make notes. You can use paper and pen, or a computer or a tablet. You can use different colors, fonts, and styles to make your notes more fun and easy to read. You can also use graphic organizers, which are diagrams that show how ideas are related. For example, you can use a Venn diagram, which is a way of showing similarities and differences between two things.
-
Note making can help you in many ways. It can help you:
-
Focus on the main ideas and not get distracted by details
-
Organize your thoughts and remember them better
-
Review what you have learned and prepare for tests
-
Share what you have learned with others
