Interactive Science Notebooks

If you are checking out the site early - I will be requiring a more structured set of supplies this year. You will need

• a blue or black pen for notes
• loose-leaf notebook paper
• colored pencils
• glue sticks

You will be creating your own text book this year, I think this will force you to work with the material more, and it will allow you and I to be able to assess the information you are having difficulty with. I am looking forward to teaching you this year!
