The Dreaded Word: SUPPLIES!!!!!


If you haven't noticed yet, popular store chains have already started to advertise the back to school sales. Now, if you are serious about interactive notebooks be prepared to joined the frenzied parents and annoyed children. I know it is hard to shell out the hard earned cash to buy are own supplies, but it's kinda worth it.  I don't know how many times I ran out of glue and had to resort to using massive amount of staplers just to make sure students won't lose their work ( and they will) . That is why it is important to have a well stocked cabinet OF YOUR OWN. This shopping list, plus supplies I will get from the school will have me stocked full full of supplies baby! While i will get some of these items within the week i will also be holding off on some a week or two after school starts, that's when you get many of the items reduced. The places I visit are Walmart, Staples, and the Dollar tree (the Holy Trinity lol)

Supply List 
Glue Sticks- 10 packs x 4 sticks = 40 glue sticks $1 each (will buy more after school starts )
Crayons
Markers(not for every day use)
Bins( hold supplies at each table)
Trash can (obvious reasons)
Invisible tape 
Extra Notebooks 

You see it's not that bad of list! The bins are the most important because without them supplies disappear. It is important to have a member of each group responsible for the bins and throwing out the trash. Teaching students to be creativity is great but teaching the responsibility is greater!
