Science Supply List

 For those of you who have had me before, you know I love to do interactive notebooks. Therefore, here are some supplies you will need to have in class with you daily.  I suggest getting a large pencil bag/box or even use a Ziplock bag to keep your supplies in.  Normally, I would have bins on the table with the supplies, but during this time we are not encouraging sharing of school supplies, so students will need their own.  Here are the supplies needed:

• notebook
• folder (folder should not be part of the notebook)
• glue sticks (we go through a lot of these)
• scissors
• scotch tape
• post it notes
• colored pencils or crayons
• ruler
• highlighter
• pencils
• correcting pen

 

I also suggest students have a water bottle, as the water fountains will not be available. However, water bottle filling stations will be available.  Hydration is very important for concentration and overall well-being. 

If your family needs assistance with school supplies, please contact the school office for information on getting the materials needed.

Welcome Back!!

 Welcome back Junior High!!  I have greatly missed you all and can't wait to get back to teaching Science.  Things will look different this year, but together we will make this work.  I look forward to working with all of you this school year and know that we will make the best of these crazy times!

See you soon!!  Mrs. Pinar 😎❤

P.S.  For now, enjoy the rest of this beautiful UP summer.  Get out there and explore!
