Georgia Science, Grade 8 v

Your notes are a reminder of what you learned in class. Taking goodnotes can help you succeed in science. These tips will help you takebetter notes.

• Be an active listener. Listen for important concepts. Pay attention to words, examples, and/or diagrams your teacher emphasizes.

• Write your notes as clearly and concisely as possible. The followingsymbols and abbreviations may be helpful in your note-taking.

• Use a symbol such as a star (★) or an asterisk (*) to emphasisimportant concepts. Place a question mark (?) next to anything thatyou do not understand.

• Ask questions and participate in class discussion.

• Draw and label pictures or diagrams to help clarify a concept.

Word or Symbol orPhrase Abbreviation

for example e.g.

such as i.e.

with w/

without w/o

Word or Symbol orPhrase Abbreviation

Note-Taking Tips

Note-Taking Don’ts

• Don’t write every word. Concentrate on the main ideas and concepts.

• Don’t use someone else’s notes—they may not make sense.

• Don’t doodle. It distracts you from listening actively.

• Don’t lose focus or you will become lost in your note-taking.

2. Mark a line on the floor with tape. Place the block on the line. Measure a distance of5 m from the line and mark a second line.

3. Practice rolling the ball until you can roll it from the 5-m line to the block.

4. Roll the ball from the 5-m line to the block. Use the stopwatch to time the roll.Then measure how far the block moved from the line when the ball hit it. Use a chart like the one below to record your data.

5. Repeat step 4 four more times, varying the speed with which you roll the ball. Recordthe time and distance for each trial.

6. Use your data to calculate the speed for each trial. Then use that information and themass of the ball to calculate the momentum of the ball in each trial.

7. Analyze your data. What relationship do you see between the momentum of the balland the distance the block moved? Why do you think this relationship exists?
