5 Reasons a Notebook is so important!
Here at Akrosphere we require students to bring a notebook to every class? Why is that you may ask? Well, here are five reasons a physical notebook is so important for your circus training!
- Writing things down helps you remember them! Note taking demands interaction with the material you just covered instead of just listening to it, and the best part about circus is. You can learn the move, review the move, write down the move, and then well, you see the picture now? It’s going to help you remember so much better!
- You remember better when you read on actual paper. There are studies that show that there are higher percentages of people who remember better when they read off of actual paper, as opposed to off of a screen.
- Too much screen time can cause tired eyes and headaches. We all know there are so many screens around us these days. Our lives are slowly becoming consumed by them. So compounding the fact that you will learn and remember the material better, you’ll also save your eyes some strain!
- You can review on your own and revisit things you’ve learned during open gym. It’s wonderful to be able to bring your notebook with you to class and to open gym. That way when you are reviewing things, you have all your notes right at your fingertips, and the more you practice the better and stronger you will become!
- See your progress! Why not write down the date alongside the moves you are learning in class? That way at the end of the year you can look back and see all the amazing progress you have made in class!
We’ll see you with notebook in tow this week!
