Supply List
Students will need books. They will need to be able to read books at their level each night. These can be found at libraries, bought by level or found on online libraries such as Epic! and Reading A-Z.
Students will need notebooks. They will use these for writing (it is suggested to use handwriting paper), spelling and vocabulary. Students will be making their own dictionary. They may use one notebook for all of this or you may get different notebooks.
