Additional Items for 6th Graders

 

• Red Homework Folder (a folder with two pockets for taking items between home and school)

• 6 additional Folders- 1 for each Core Subject and 2 for Related Arts each class (ideally different colors or prints)

• 4 composition books (wide rule)    Amazon Link  (Less than $1.00 each at Rite Aid or Walmart)

• Binders with hole-punched wide-ruled paper: Some kids do great with one large binder for all (TrapperKeeper). For others, having less to carry around and mix in is better.  You might consider one 1 1/2” binder for morning subjects and one 1 1/2” binder for afternoon subjects.

 

 

Additional Items for 7th Graders

• One 4” binder or two 2” binders

• 4 wide-rule 1-subject spiral notebooks OR a 4 or 5-subject spiral bound notebook

Additional Items for 8th Graders

 

• Notebook for each class or a five subject notebook or binder divided into five subjects.

• Folder for each class to hold homework and papers handed out in class.

• Regular inexpensive calculator for math class.  We have a supply of these in the classroom but they tend to vanish as the year progresses so it's always a good idea for students to have their own.
