Composition notebooks for all types of users
Some composition books have extra space at the top of each page for diagrams and story illustrations. Their covers come in various colors that can represent the learning grades. Books for early grades can include printed alphabets inside the front covers.
Early learners are better off using wide-ruled primary composition books. The gaps between lines span 8.7 millimeters. As children start learning, they tend to scrawl in large, inconsistent handwriting that requires the larger spaces between lines.
Composition notebooks of various sizes
Composition books that hold 60 to 100 sheets can contain plenty of information. This makes them suitable for senior students or professionals who jot down detailed notes and drawings. Early learners can use primary composition books with 24 sheets.
Dimensions of these products include:
- 3.25 x 4.5 inches, which is light and compact
- 9.75 x 7.5 inches to accommodate a lot of content
- 9.5 x 7.75 inches with wide pages for more writing space
For shorthand and fast note-taking, choose from steno pads that come in various sizes.
Composition notebook styles
Books come in various colors and patterns. Marble composition books look professional, and their strong covers can endure regular use. One of the materials used to make covers is pressboard, which is stiff to prevent folding and damage. Recycled paper covers are strong, and they offer a low carbon footprint for eco-conscious users.
Some composition notebooks and note pads come with college-style ruling. These have gaps between the lines of 7.1 millimeters. They're suitable for high school and college students, who generally have more compact writing styles. Such books are ideal for college essays and lecture notes.
Composition book binding types
Composition notebooks come in spiral-bound and hard-bound options. Consider spiral notebooks because they lie flat when open for easy writing, the pages flip over quickly, and sheets can be removed without damaging the book.
Hardbound books secure pages for generations. Hardcover Moleskine® journals can create a good impression, and they typically have an elastic closure and a ribbon bookmark for convenience and acid-free paper for longevity.
