I created this lesson to allow my students to record notes during our Fiction Unit. The teacher will provide the notes to be added to each section. The students will record the notes in the provided spaces. This is an engaging note collection method that allows students to easily follow along with the teacher's instruction. In addition, this notebook will provide a collective study set for students throughout the Fiction Unit.
