I made my kids (7th and 9th) watch this video this summer, then choose a TED talk and take notes from it. They each decided they preferred a different method, and they seem to be actually taking notes this year. But if teachers are giving study guides for tests, your son won't have an incentive to take notes, although that will come to an end in high school.


Wish I had known about this when I was a student at Cornell!

This. I took notes by 7th grade. Kid needs to start making up abbreviations for words to note take faster.

The wonderful book: The Writing Revolution, includes great note taking shorthand.
