• Materials you need for this class
Pencil and Pen
Calculator (scientific will be needed 2nd semester) $5-15
Graph paper Composition book (for labs and daily questions, not notes) – Office Stores or from Freeman $2.75 – due nextWed – If you want to use a regular notebook, that’s ok but you won’t be able to use it next year. If you want to use one book for this class and honors chem. (10th), you need to purchase one of these. Also, I have used ones you can tear pages from to make work for you. This will not need to be brought to class every day.
Separate Notebook for your notes – may be for my class or all classes.
