Math 8:

• a one inch binder with loose-leaf paper - no spiral notebooks!
• pencils a plenty
• simple function calculator - NOT the one on your phone

Astronomy:

• binder with loose leaf paper AND grid graph paper
• pocket folder to hold handouts (one that fits in your binder would be ideal!)
• pens or pencils
• highlighter
• download a FREE sky viewing app to your phone - I recommend Sky Map or Star Tracker (or both!)

Chemistry:

• binder with loose-leaf paper and pockets OR personal 3-hole punch to file problem sets
• something to write with (keep in mind that pencils are easier to correct mistakes)
• scientific calculator that is capable of scientific notation and logarithms - I highly recommend the TI-30X series - NOT the one on your phone
• a willingness to try and a dedication to following lab directions

Forensic Science:

• some sort of system that holds your notes and any handouts
• something to write with
• a curious mind and a strong stomach
