Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

maybe I should start a new thread, because I have been interested in this site as well, but am totally at a loss as to WHAT notebooking is...

I'm sure I've asked this before, but my brain is broken!


I think this is a great question. I've asked it before myself. I think there is a variety of answers.

I can't remember who started this concept...can someone refresh my memory? I thought it was Karen Andreola.

Here's a great collection of notebooking links to help understand the bigger picture.

Jenn,

Karen Andreola, really? Don't tell me after all these years, I overlooked that! Seriously, being a more timid variety of CM'er, her books were the first ones I read, and I remember reading and hoping that she would state how to implement CM directly in a certain format or template that I could put right to work and use. I felt that she often came close, but stopped just short of saying, "Do it like this." That often left me feeling frustrated! So, if she is the inventor, I now feel really ridiculous!

I don't know if she was the first to suggest this, but I do know that the basic concept of compiling work into a notebook is touched on by Jane Lambert in Five-in-A-Row. She talks about giving each child a notebook and allowing him/her to break it down any number of ways, but topic studied, by book they are 'rowing', etc.
