the side that you can use to reflect
information from the right side.

teacher guided notes and handouts.
Nothing else should be placed on the
Right side!!
Left Side
• The left side belongs to you. It
contains your warm-up (question
mark) and the day’s activity (light
bulb). On this page you may include
diagrams, cartoons, drawings, poems,
foldables, etc.
