​If possible, supplies for class should be purchased prior to or during the first week of school.

​

• One 1" three-ring binder OR a section in another binder with a divider tab labeled "Academic Skills Lab."

  • Students will use this binder each day in class to hold the course syllabus, all notes taken in class, handouts, and scored assignments. 

• One college-rule, 7 1/2 x 9 3/4" composition notebook.

  • Students will use this notebook for their Sustained Silent Reading (SSR) entries every day in class. This notebook will be turned in every couple of weeks, so it should not be shared with another class or hold class notes.

• One ream of college-rule, 8x11" notebook paper. 

  • This paper will go in your class binder for notes and assignments. It can be shared with other classes and will stay in the students' possession.

• One box of number two pencils. Any type will do. 

  • Students will keep these pencils for their personal use in multiple classes. 

• One highlighter of your choosing. Or many highlighters of various colors, if that is your thing.

  • Students will use highlighters when they annotate texts. These highlighters can be shared with other classes and will stay in the students' possession.

• Student-issued Chromebook in carrying case.

  • Students will be issued a chromebook laptop computer during registration in August. This computer needs to be brought to school daily for use in the classroom. The laptop computer needs to be charged at home. ​

• Access to your school email account. 

  • Students will use their LAPS email addresses to register for turnitin.com, Tackk, and Padlet accounts. I will also send emails to students if they are absent, performing poorly in the class, etc. Students should check their LAPS email account daily. It might help if you connect your email account to your cell phone notifications.

*The Classroom Student Resource Center is a designated place in the classroom for storing student-only materials like art supplies, loner pencils and highlighters, paper, and tissues. Students who find themselves in class without necessary materials can borrow supplies from the CSRC. The goal is to make sure that students always have access to the necessary materials to participate in class.
