A Vocabulary Notebook is a booklet in which you can register new vocabulary so you can spend some time learning these new words out of the classroom.
I have a lot of respect for students who are good listeners and readers and they always listen and read trying to find something new to learn.
Sometimes you have to ask yourself what was the last word that I learned? so you can understand how active you are in seeking new knowledge.
Some of my students keep a vocabulary notebook in old fashion ways which is keeping a notebook close to them all the time.
Now with the advancements in technology, this can be done through your smartphone, tablet or your PC.
