Guided notes are partially completed worksheets designed to scaffold students' note-taking and enhance their ability to identify the most important information in a lesson. These resources consist of unlabeled diagrams, graphic organizers, and fill-in-the-blank prompts and are intended to be used by students during the instructional portion of a lesson. The PDFs are not editable, so we recommend printing them out to allow students to benefit the most from their use. Student and teacher versions of guided notes are available, with the teacher versions containing the answers. Note that guided notes are only available in lessons covering content from Grades 6–12.
Whether students are working through their learning paths or on teacher-built assignments, Teachers and Administrators can access, print, and distribute guided notes to students when needed. Alternatively, students can access guided notes from their Course Map, but they can only access the guided notes for the lesson they are currently working on.
