Supplies
We aren't starting our HOD hs just yet but while the school supplies are still out can anyone tell me what I NEED to get to be prepared and not pay full price when we ARE ready to start? I know crayons and glue sticks are a given. Any other items that you know are on sale this time of year that you know I'd need for either LHFHG or BLHFHG? I bought a small dry erase board, and two sets of 50 page protectors (they were 3.97/pack!). Are the binders cheaper this time of year or about the same as the rest of the year?

Re: Supplies
Index cards for Beyond (spelling and other things)
Construction paper
Binders are often cheaper, but it depends on the store I think.
You might also want:
Markers and colored pencils
Notebook paper
Spiral or composition books (great for copy work and spelling in Beyond I bet)
Dividers for binders
Printer paper
That is what I have seen so far. We are only on Unit 3 of LHFHG though (using the LA from Beyond too, but only Unit 1 so far).

Re: Supplies
Crayons
Pencils/erasers
a good pencil sharpener
markers
colored pencils
dry erase board and markers
index cards
binder
sheet protectors
printer paper
construction paper
scissors
glue sticks
school glue
fingerpaint or paint - Crayola makes a great washable paint but as far as I know this doesn't really go on sale. I recall it being cheaper on Amazon than in any stores around here.
play doh/clay (you may want to wait until you know its coming up there are only a few projects that use it)
For your copywork or spelling you may want to either have separate composition books for it, or a binder with sections and loose leaf paper. I buy the writing paper for starting off, the 3 lines big spaces for early writers. Eventually, probably in Bigger, you can use wide-ruled. If you try to go to wide-ruled too early it can really derail handwriting.
A lot of our other supplies are food related. Food coloring is a common one (usually liquid). But there are several projects that are made with food.
I'm sure there are things I've forgotten
