Notes:
Students should keep all papers, graded or not, in their binders for the entire semester.
Students will need a 70 or 80 page spiral for my class which was on the supply list. (Prefer metal binding.)
At times, lessons may be modified and adjusted due to time issues. Please check your child's agenda as well.
