Task 1 Set up Interactive Science Notebooks (ISN)
Number each page following the Tables of Contents
Glue Classroom Rules onto the inside front cover of your ISN
Make a Title Page
Leave the first left-side page blank
Use the next three pages to rule Tables of Contents
Keep your ISN, Program, Chemistry Data sheet in a plastic folder. A cardboard folder is OK but will deteriorate more quickly than cardboard.
