Angles and Special Angle Pairs: 2 page visual interactive "doodle notes" set -When students color or doodle in math class, it activates both hemispheres of the brain at the same time. There are proven benefits of this cross-lateral brain activity:- new learning- relaxation (less math anxiety)- visual connections- better memory & retention of the content!Students fill in the sheets, answer the questions, and color, doodle or embellish. Then, they can use it as a study guide later on. Graphic doodle and sketch notes take full advantage of Dual Coding Theory (the way brains process visual and linguistic information) to maximize retention.Content includes:- naming an angle- classifying angles (acute, obtuse, right, and straight)- special pairs of angles (complementary, supplementary, adjacent, and vertical)- practice identifying each type- color coding & examplesCheck out the preview images for more detail about this item and the research behind it.Visual note taking strategies like sketch notes or doodle notes are based on dual coding theory. When we can blend the text input with graphic/visual input, the student brain processes the information differently and can more easily convert the new learning into long-term memory.This strategy also integrates the left and right hemispheres of the brain to increase focus, learning, and retention! 2 pages are included, plus answer keys, samples, and info. ____________________________________________________________________ Reviews from other teachers: -I love that I was able to use this during distance learning by providing them with the filled out notes, but could also use it in class next year as guided notes!!! -My students love when I give them doodle notes. This really helps my kids who have to keep doing something to stay engaged. Also adds a lot to the interactive notebooks that we build every year. Thank you! -I used this resource to introduce the concept to my students and give them something tangible to look back on and review the material. -My honors students loved doing this as a study guide to use on their test! -I only used parts of the product because I teach 4th grade but it made a great addition to our math notebook!
