U.S. History
ONE PAGER
We learn best when we create our own patterns. A one pager is a front/back notebook page concerning one chapter in your textbook. It is creative and experimental. It is imaginative and honest. It is a way of making your own pattern of unique understanding of this part of U.S. History class.
Steps to follow:
- Read the assigned chapter in the text: Chapter 10.
- As you read, jot notes in the graphic organizer to help in designing your one pager.
- Don’t forget to read headings, subheadings, and information found under illustrations and in the margins.
- Use one 8x11 blank sheet of paper to create your one pager. Use both sides.
- Keep in mind that an audience should be able to examine your one pager and understand the essence of this chapter.
