Step inside The Notebook Lab, where ideas come to life through words, sketches, and creative thinking. In this 6-week class, students will learn the art of sketchnoting which is a powerful way to capture, organize, and understand information using a combination of simple drawings and key words.

Each week, students will explore how to:

• turn ideas into quick, meaningful visuals

• identify main ideas and important details

• organize their thinking on the page

• develop their own unique visual note-taking style 

Through engaging various topics, guided practice, and discussion, students will discover that note-taking doesn’t have to be boring or overwhelming—it can be creative, thoughtful, and fun.

This class emphasizes thinking over perfection. Students will be encouraged to sketch quickly, keep drawings simple, and focus on understanding rather than creating polished artwork.
