Are you a homeschool mom, a classroom teacher or a parent? Then we think you’ll agree when we say there are a lot of great reasons to have your students or children keep a language arts binder.
Binders give your students quick and easy access to their papers as well as a sense of ownership and pride. They also help students practice their organization skills and find what works for them.
Language Arts can be a very complex subject covering a variety of areas. It’s crucial to a student’s success to keep all of this information organized.
Here are some suggested sections for your students’ or children’s educational binders.
Class Notes
Keeping great notes is a pivotal part of being a successful student. These notes could have been taken from a class lecture, or of the students’ own research or reading. Wherever the information comes from, a well-organized binder is the perfect way to make studying for the text easier later on.
Reference Sheets
Students use these to help them remember or quickly access helpful information. Some examples of reference sheets are graphic organizers, grammar items, greek and latin roots, definitions, definitions for literary terms and devices, prefixes and suffixes, and so on.
Writing Portfolio
This section can include anything written, including journal entries.
Goal Setting and Performance
In this section, students can track their own performance in different areas. For example, they can keep track of their reading inventory, as well as their reading level and reading level growth.
These binders will get a lot of use and experience a lot of wear and tear, so it’s important that the binder used to house this important information be of superior quality. You want the binders to make it to the end of the school year, right?
