Supply List


Most of these items are available at the 99 Cents Only Stores. 
All items are to be in the student's binder and backpack EVERY DAY. 
There is NO excuse for not having basic materials EVERY DAY.

3 sharpened pencils OR two mechanical pencils with extra lead
2 erasers
1 High Quality pencil sharpener. The cheap ones break quickly. It must have a cup to catch the shavings of wood so we keep our class neat and clean.
3 Correcting Pens: NO BLACK OR BLUE; no flourescent or metallic colors
1 Set of 8 or more Sharpened colored pencils. Put these inside your pencil pouch that is inside your 2" binder
1 2" 3-ring binder Must be NOT LESS THAN TWO INCHES WIDE. This is to hold your agenda, spiral notebooks, and workbooks
1 Backpack or Book Bag That you can close so others are not tempted to open it or take things out of your bag.
1 Package Loose Leaf Filler Paper 100 or more sheets of paper. Put this paper inside your 2" binder.
1 Set of Tabbed Dividers of 8 tabs. Put these inside your 2" binder
1 zippered 3 hole punched pencil pouch. Put this inside your 2" binder
1 Reading Book (a "Chapter Book") needs to be in your backpack AT ALL TIMES so that you will ALWAYS have some way of keeping yourself busy.
1 "Safety Compass" This compass does NOT have a "point". It looks like a ruler with holes and circles. It's usually plastic
1 protractor. I suggest SIMPLE. see-though and FLAT is best. Flexible is even more interesting.
1 notebook of graph paper. At least 100 pages. The usual size is 1/4" squares, but a similar size is ok. Punch 3 holes in this graph paper, and then put this graph paper in your 2" binder.
1 ruler that fits inside your 2" binder. There are many rulers that have three holes to go into a binder
10 Page protectors. (You may want to buy more.)
3 Packs of Index cards. Any size, any color, any kind.
3 Ball Point type writing pens BLACK OR BLUE ONLY. I suggest Fine Point because it helps me to write more neatly.
1 USB Flash Drive is suggested but NOT required. 64 Megabytes is the minimum I would recommend.
1 mini stapler that uses standard size staples. This will make your life a lot easier
1 3-hole Paper Puncher that goes inside your 2" Binder. It is plastic and metal and has holes to snap into your 2" binder. It will punch holes in only 1 paper at a time, but it will also make your life a lot easier!
1 Correction TAPE only. No LIQUID, NO CORRECTION PENS, NO BOTTLES.
