Seventh Day

Today was the seventh day of Human Geography. We learned how to take notes by taking notes on Illinois. The essay that we took notes from were made for 4th graders but we did it anyways. I learned that notes are a facts made of fragments that are later made into sentences. When you are taking notes, you always want to use the least amount of words possible and use lots of abbreviations. We also saw a news article where 125 out of 250 students at Harvard were caught cheating on a final exam. We talked about college and how there could be 200 students in a class and the teacher lectures the whole time while you have to sit there and take notes for however long the class is. Or you can buy notes from somebody who was sitting in the front, but that isn't recommended because they could give you the wrong notes. We had to read our paragraph of our notes on Illinois out loud. There was a website we went on that had a bunch of information on how to take notes. Seventh day is complete.
