Learners will be asked to note what they already know about each term, what they want to know, and (after a bit of research or a lesson) what they learned about it. Students fill in the information, cut out the pieces, and glue them into place. Finished pieces can be glued into a science notebook or an appropriately sized piece of cardstock. A collection of F3 pieces could be bound together using clasp rings, metal brads, yarn, or a comb spine.
