Supplies, Supplies, Supplies

I've given the students a couple of different lists.

First, all of my students need a sketchbook.  It needs to be approximately 8.5" X 11" and should be built in such a way that pages won't fall out.  The options are:  (1) a spiral bound sketchbook which can be found at stores such as Wal-Mart, Walgreens, Target, Michael's, Hobby Lobby etc. (2) a 1/2" or 1" three ring binder which we can add paper to once at school or (3) a folder that has the three prongs in it that we can add paper to.

Second, all students will need wood cased pencils. (Yes, the old-fashioned kind.)  I'll provide them with one, but they will most likely need more than that.

The drawing and painting  and advanced drawing and painting students also need masking tape and a tool box (tackle box).

The list that was included in the letter (plastic bags, facial tissue, etc.) are things that we can use, but are by no means compulsory items.  They would be more along the lines of donations to the class.
