Notes/ work from the previous school year?

horse_freak001 · 08-18-2008, 02:06 PM

What do you do with all your notes, worksheets, projects, and everything else that you did from the previous year in school?

I usually keep them, but I don't look at them ever again. With 8 classes a year (and a seperate binder for every class), they really start to add up. Right now, I want to throw away some of them, but I can't. I can't bear to throw away some of my work just because I worked so hard the whole year, but on the other hand, I just don't want it anymore.

)

Last year the only notes I kept were my French notes, because I'll use them again for next year in my grade 11 French... I got permission to skip the French10 so I figure I'll need the extra notes to catch up =P

I kept some of my reports and stuff and was able to use them later - usually would take the basic info from them to write new reports or re-write them by improving what I had and adding more...

I recycle/toss everything.

there are a few exceptions, but mostly I just want to forget about school and having a years worth of school work in my closet doesn't really help haha

I JUST started to keep notes (im going into eighth grade) before that I didn't need any of that info. This year I kept my whole english binder. I had the most amazing english teacher and I'm sure ill need whats in there! And some science fair stuff from last year.

This year I've kept some and thrown out others.

I'm moving into sixth form and I have personally chosen the classes which I am going to take. I am going from something like 10 different subjects to just 4. So I've thrown out the stuff from subjects I won't have to do any more, but kept the stuff for the subjects I'm keeping.

I keep all my work from semester to semester, and then depending on my next year's schedule I'll either toss it all or keep some of it. For example, I took a calculus class last year, and I'm keeping those notes until I know for sure I'm absolutely done with calculus.

But I tossed a TON of old notes and homework assignments a few weeks ago now that I'm done with high school. It felt SO good.

I would keep my notes only, but then I don't exactly keep my binders very neat and organized and it would take me too long (or I'm just too lazy), to sift through them all.
