Directions for History Note-Books.
I. All history students must use loose leaf note-books.
II. All notes in and out of class must be taken in ink. Do not take notes with pencil and then copy—it wastes time! The book is for use.
III. Outline your work.
A. Put the heading of each new chapter at the top of a fresh sheet and begin each distinct subject on a new page.
B. Leave a margin of an inch and a half, and indent each paragraph one inch more.
C. Leave a line between each large topic and allow several lines after each subject for note-taking in the class.
