Generally, students participate in many hands-on, group activities in which they manipulate papers, cut out graphic organizers and color. I require my students to have the basics (paper, pen/pencils, erasers, etc). Notebooks or binders are great! Choose what you feel more comfortable with.
ONLINE students are only required to have a FULLY CHARGED chromebook and charger to fully participate in my class for the 2020-2021 school year..
