School Supplies!

Happy July!

I KNOW you have a month and a half before school starts up again, but I had to write a quick post because as you all know, you are going to need school supplies -- and Target has ALREADY put out their school supplies. I'm sure they will have them from now through September, but they appear to have some really good deals right now. So, if any of you do your shopping at Target, I thought I would make a list of some of the things that you will definitely need when you return to school. And even if you don't shop at Target, it drew my attention to the fact that having a list in advance might be helpful - so shop wherever you do, and I hope this list is helpful to you :)

Warning: This is NOT a complete list - I am only telling you things I know for SURE - and you can expect to get more complete lists from all of your teachers when you come back to school mid-August :) I don't want to try and guess what everyone else will require, I'm just trying to give you a head start!

In general:
- book covers (you will need to cover all textbooks. Plan for approximately 5)
- pencils
- pens (blue or black)
- looseleaf paper

For Social Studies specifically:
- notebook (at least 120pgs+, with at least 2 sections in it)
- pens (blue or black AND another color - red is a good option!)
- markers or crayons (to be left at home - but you will have take home projects/assignments that will require you complete them in color)

As always, if you have any questions - feel free to leave a comment or email me. I hope you're all doing well!
