Notebooks

When you hear the word notebook, what do you think of? I think of those little manilla colored Composition notebooks with the red binding that have about 50 pages of paper in them. We have used those little notebooks in schools for what seems like forever! I remember being given those notebooks when I was in elementary, and I give them to my students as well.

But the students in 201 will not be using pens or pencils as they use notebooks this month. Today we embark on a new adventure, for in the world of technology "notebook" has a whole different meaning! A notebook is a small laptop, for lack of a better way to describe it. They are about 1 inch thick, and take up as much desk space as a tablet... hence the name, I guess! We are trying out a few notebooks for the technology department. We are excited for this opportunity and have several ways in mind already that the notebooks will be put to good use.
