- good morning! Welcome back to distance learning. I am hoping that you can get some supplies for science this year:
- A marbled patterned 70 page composition lab book. It can be of any color, wide or college ruled. Do not get a spiral notebook - these do not last throughout the whole year.
- Scotch tape or glue sticks (not Elmers glue)
- a ruler, pencil, and if you can get a small set of colored pencils - cool.
- This is a very challenging time, but we will start slow and steady. You will need to be on time to our online classes.
- Looking forward to seeing you on Aug 25!
