SQ3R examples

Here are a couple examples of students' notes on section 2.1 using the SQ3R method.

Test 2a

On Thursday, we will have our second test. It will cover sections 1 and 2 of chapter 2. Remember, this test will not be open book, but you will be able to use your SQ3R notes on the test. Hopefully, you are using your class time wisely and will have good notes. The test will not be easy, but good notes will give you the information to succeed.

SQ3R notes

In today's class, I went over how to take SQ3R notes, which is a great system of note-taking designed specifically for studying from text books. If you were in class, then we created notes for 2.1 together. But, if you were absent, you can get a basic overview from the video below.

A little about Dr. Sabin: Car

One of the unusual facts about me is that I have a chalkboard car. Now, if you're thinking that sounds like the coolest thing in the world, you're absolutely right. OK, well maybe not the coolest in the whole world, but pretty cool, nonetheless.

My car is a Prius C, which is the hatchback Prius. I get about 55mpg, which is great since I do a lot of driving to GJHS, FLPoly, and wherever else I go. But, honestly, the car is kind of boring stock. So, I thought of a way to make a boring car less boring.

I painted it with chalkboard paint.

And here are some pictures of artwork people have drawn on my car over the last year.
