8th grade U.S. History, 6th grade Ancient Civilizations
I have heard from the summer grapevine that some parents have already been thinking about school supplies.
Here is the list for both 8th and 6th graders in my classes:
1- 1 1/2 inch 3 ring binder with dividers (only 1 section is needed for my class)
college ruled notebook paper
pencils
1 red pen
1 small set of colored pencils (10-12 colors is fine)
a small manual pencil sharpener
a great attitude
A word of advice- keep it simple. Basic school supplies are best as often times, the "gimic" products tend to distract from the learning.
By the way, if you would like to make a supply donation for our classroom, we are in great need of white copy paper as well as ink cartridges for the student in-class computer lab. HP color #78 and black #45. I am certain you are aware of the severe budget cuts we are experiencing and any help from you would be greatly appreciated.
Happy shopping and I look forward to meeting you on September 7th!
