Teaching Note Taking | Campfire Curriculums | Gather Round Homeschool | School Nest Notebooks

Note taking is a skill that must be taught. It isn't a task that we are just born knowing how to do. We need to be supportive and walk our children through the process of learning how to take notes. I am sharing how I have used Gather Round Homeschool and Campfire Curriculums to teach the note taking skill. I am also going to show you how I scaffolded note taking in our School Nest notebooks.

You can find the School Nest notebooks in my Amazon Storefront that is linked below. Please remember that those are not necessary. You can take notes anywhere.

I absolutely adore the School Nest Notebooks. Before using them I wrap them in clear vinyl (the furniture wrap) to keep them nice and neat. I keep every piece of paper and notebook my kids use so I want these beautiful notebooks to last!

Thank you, Ashlea! This was so helpful and i've spent the last couple of days making notes for myself from the Titanic unit we are starting this week. Now turning those notes into notebooking pages for my kids. ❤

It's so true that everyone's notes look different. For me it depends on where and why. My church notes look different than my notes from the homeschool convention. I use different colors, print, drawings etc. 🌻

I was never taught how to notetake! I wish I was because I felt like I needed to write EVERYTHING down in high school... I got better in college and developed my own ssytem. I am teaching my son how to do it like the Cornell Method.

Ashley, when did you son develop the ability to physically write his own notes ? My son really struggles with writing so we are using a voice to text app. He is 10 years old .
He is extremely smart and can get his ideas out orally but as soon as writing is involved it’s a major struggle 😢
