ISN

You should have…

100 page spiral bound notebookColored pencils (at least 5)Liquid glue OR tapeScissors

Questions…• Why not stick glue? – Because it dries out

faster than liquid glue and your pages can fall out! • Can I use markers? - No; markers can bleed

through the paper and cause your notebook to look sloppy. Only use markers on pages we paste into our notebook

• How often will I need these supplies? – EVERYDAY!
