I TEACH my students how to take notes. I go over it extensively in class and even take notes”live notes” along with my students. I believe this is invaluable.

But about half of my students have an IEP that calls for me to share notes. I think this is wrong, especially if I am taking notes live in class myself. So what happens is half of students just get the notes from their friends who have the IEP. They don’t seem to understand that the note taking IS the learning.
So what do I do?

Take a grade on the notes immediately after you go through them (this can be as simpleas walking around and looking at them while they're working independently). For students with IEPs, just reduce the requirement for what they have to add. Maybe even have a SPED teacher or aide make a modified version for those kids.

Then, give the IEP students their required copy AFTER you go through it with the class. If they didn't make ANY effort to take notes themselves, then they still get them and you've fulfilled your legal obligation, but they don't get credit for the note-taking grade.

The regular ed students who rebel will learn quickly that they need to actually take notes as the bad grades pile up.

Sharing notes because of an IEP is not required daily. You can also create notes with blanks where the students have to pay attention and fill-in the missing information.

Wondering what I should do.
