I wanted to take some time to elaborate on last nights post. I received many questions about what supplies I typically buy throughout the year, and if the $300 was for each grade level or a combination.
To clarify, I spend roughly $300 for the whole year for all 3 grade levels. On average I buy the following items a couple times a year:
Pens/pencils
Construction paper
Notebook paper
Binders
Spiral notebooks
Journals
Graph paper
Art supplies (paint, glue, paint brushes, colored pencils, pastels, charcoals,etc.)
Easels
I also buy random items for projects that we do not have at home. Currently this year I have bought the following items for “special” projects:
Bluetooth amp (basic circuitry)
PVC
Nails (for pneumatic)
Laser
Wires, wire strippers
Chisels & files (woodworking)
Helping hands (circuitry, soldering )
Soldering iron
Sewing kits (Yes, the boys want to learn..they currently are making wallets using leather from my old purses)
Letter punches
There are also many items I buy that we use for particular science projects for common pantry items that were not so common in my house.
If you any other questions just let me know!
Thanks for the inquiries and Have a great night!
