NOTE TAKING:
BTLC is slowly working out strategies in taking down notes. In the traditional setting, pupils were asked to copy notes written on the blackboard, which is fine. However aside from copying from the blackboard, basic strategies in taking down notes have been slowly introduced, starting with the use of graphic organizers and "I" note method. Pupils are taught not just to copy but to write and organize on their own ideas discussed in class and to take note only of the details that may not be written on the board but necessary to remember. Pupils' notes may vary and it will depend on their own style of learning.
Tips for parents on how to help your children organize their notes, please click on the links below:
