Classroom Supplies
Not many supplies are needed for this class. I do require the ones below (so a spiral notebook will not do). For students that regularly use tissue, it is always recommended to have a small pack with you.
- 3 ring binder with notebook paper (I will do a notebook check)
- Pencils & erasers
- Calculator (TI-30X IIS (scientific)~$10 or TI-84 Plus CE (graphing) ~$130) (for homework)
Supplies to keep in the class:
- Boys – A bottle of hand sanitizer
- Girls – A box of tissues and a box of pencils
- Optional – A bag of candy (to give as rewards), colored copy paper
