Turn to the next clean page in your composition book.
This time, instead of glueing down a notes page, you will make your own.

Use the two previous pages to help you divide this page in the same way - create a space for notes, drawing, analogy, and summary. Label each section. You can grab a ruler from the supply shelves to help.

Remember to label the top of your notes with the title, 1.3 Density.
Use the image above to take notes in your composition book.
