Class Supply List

For those of you that want to get an early start on purchasing your supplies (although I know that there are really good deals on most of these things as we get closer to the start of school), the list is as follows:

* 2" (minimum) 3-ring binder (I give a lot of materials to help you along the way)
* 2 spiral notebooks (for notes, pages will not be ripped out!)
* 1 pack of dividers (for binder)
* 1 box of 12 colored pencils (12 minimum- 24 maximum)
* 1 box of markers (8-12)
* 1 highlighter (any color)
* 2 blue or black ink pens
* 2 pencils
* college ruled notebook paper (in notebook and refilled as needed)

These supplies (with the exception of the binder, spiral notebooks, and paper) will be kept in class for use in completing various activities. They will be stored in our class cabinet for your individual use, and will be given back at the end of the school year. If there is anything on this list that you like to use on a regular basis at home, purchase 2. These materials are fairly inexpensive, but if anyone is in a personal situation where getting any of these would be a problem, please send me an email to mrsaborges@dadeschools.net instead of posting a question on here, and I will respond to the message. This information will remain private and I will try to work something out. All other questions and concerns should be posted as comments on this blog below.

P.S. Don't wait until the last minute to get your book!

  1. Hey Mrs. Borges iT'S Jenny from Psychology, would it be okay if i print out a map in black and white that already has the states and capital written and then I fill in the correct colors? and than i can use the map from the blog to color in the lakes and rivers

  2. Jenny- The point of the map is to fill everything out by hand to help the learning process. Remember what we learned in Psychology.We use different parts of our brain to read, write, speak, etc. The more parts we use, the better we learn that information. Using a filled out map would mean that you would only be reading that information.

  3. Hey miss its Claudia.

    I was doing the map and when it gets to shading the states certain colors there were states that fall into two groups. How do I color them cause its two different colors?

  4. Claudia: Try shading the area with the lighter color and then with the darker color, put dotted lines around where the other color should go up to. I hope this helps.
