Question about school supply needs for Beyond

Post by Joselle173 » Tue Jul 20, 2010 8:01 pm

I'll be doing Beyond with my daughter. What are the supplies needed for this - binders, that sort of thing? I'm not talking about art supplies, but stuff for the actual day to day work.

Here's what I bought. We're just getting started, so I'm still figuring it all out too!
  • writing tablets--Rainbow Resource has some nice graded tablets that seem to be a good fit for my DC!
    dry erase board, markers, and eraser (for spelling, grammar, and math lessons)
    index cards (for spelling)--I bought the pre-drilled ones to store on rings
    plastic drawers or shelves to organize books
    basic art supplies (crayons, markers, paint, color pencils, modeling clay, etc.)--Just stocked up at Walmart!
    folder per child for storing current unit's work
    binders to put work in at the end of each unit

We just started last week and I'm really enjoying our lessons...and so are my DC!

We're going to be starting Beyond soon too! I would consider art to be part of the day to day with HOD because it is scheduled regularly. So, make sure to have a pkg of colored construction paper too. A notebook for copywork, commonplace book I think it's called. HTH
