Students will need a copy of the book. It can be downloaded on a Kindle device instantly, purchased directly, or borrowed from the library. 

We will be making the passports during the first class, I will send the printable to the classroom, please have it printed. It is not hard to make but will require a stapler and glue. If you’re more comfortable doing it before the first class, that is fine... just let me know!

Students will also need supplies for their projects. Depending on what they want to do, most supplies will be on hand, such as paper, cardboard, glue, crayons, scissors... and if they'd like to just write a poem or build with legos... that is just as good!

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Kahoot
