You will have the following materials with you every day in class.

- Notebook paper, college rule, standard size
- Blue or black ink pen only (no rainbow colors - work will not be accepted)
- A red pen (for grading and editing papers - not to be used for completing assignments)
- Pencils (can be mechanical - be sure and get extra lead)
- Supplied - but you can get your own....A folder with brads and pockets, plastic if available (lasts longer) - no cartoons, pictures, etc. (Do NOT write on this folder until you come to class and get instructions)
- Acceptable in class - student option:
- (Optional) A small set of color pencils (no crayons or markers)
- (Optional) WhiteOut - the tape is best (does not smell, dry out, spill, leak, etc)

Items that are Not Acceptable in my class - they will be confiscated*:
- Gang markings, hickies, etc., must be covered with a band-aid all day.
- Inappropriate clothing (hats, spiked bracelets, neckbelts, innapropriate t-shirts, etc)
- Permanent ink markers of any kind
- Electronic devices such as phones, music devices of any kind, ear phones
- Toys, stuffed animals, skate boards
- Magazines (especially of questionable material)
- Food, drinks, candy, gum (if you need a piece of gum just peel one from under the desk when needed ;) - be sure to return it when you are done!)
* Confiscated items will either be held in my room until the end of the year or will be turned in to the office with a referral. When the items go to the office the parents will need to come to the school and pick them up and sign for them. It is the student's responsibility to come by my room and pick up any items taken during the year. If the items kept in my room are not picked up they will be turned in to the office or donated to the Goodwill Industries.
**If a parent wishes to pick up an item that I have in my possession they are welcome to come to my classroom and do so at any time.
