[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've long been convinced someone in FCPS is getting kick back from the marble notebook manufacturer. Those things are utterly useless. [/quote]The marble notebooks could be useful if kids were taught to take actual notes in class. And, if they were taught how to outline what they read in a textbook!   But, no, the marble notebooks are slathered with glue and then a hapless homeschool worksheet is folded in half sideways and planted in the glue. If the DC is lucky, the glue won’t ooze out and glue the pages of the notebook together. [/quote]

The most shocking in this thread to me is that others had the marble notebook pasting papers mess that ours did. I truly thought it was our 1 teacher who had a good idea but it just didn’t work as she thought it would. As I cannot believe everyone here posting from same Region 2 ES, crazy to me that this was by more than 1 teacher.  The notebooks were just overstuffed messes.  Want to be clear, I in no way blame or meaning this to reflect in anyway bad on teachers- they do their best with what given.  Please give them option of other materials![/quote]

One of my kids is still doing this in middle school in Region 4. At least the glue situation is under control but nothing else about the method has improved with age. [/quote]
