Hi! These are the notes from my world history class. Oh, who am I? Well, some people said I was the smartest kid in class. I wrote everything you need to ace MATH, from the FRACTIONS to the COORDINATE PLANE, and only the really important stuff in between-you know, the stuff that's usually on the test! I tried to keep everything organized, so I almost always: * Highlight vocabulary words in YELLOW * Color in definitions in green highlighter * Use BLUE PEN for important people, places, dates, and terms * Doodle a pretty sweet pie chart and whatnot to visually show the big ideas If you're not loving your textbook and you're not so great at taking notes in class, this notebook will help. It hits all the major points. (But if your teacher spends a whole class talking about something that's not covered, go ahead and write that down for yourself.) Now that I've aced math, this notebook is YOURS. I'm done with it, so this notebook's purpose in life is to help YOU learn and remember just what you need to ace YOUR math class.
