Units/Items Needed
Each month we not only study our basic curriculum but we also study various units that cover science and social studies topics. Under each unit I have listed 'some' of the items (marked with *) that we may need for that unit or during that month for various things that we may be studying. During these months I will send Help Wanted notes on the Classroom Newsletter. Thanks in advance for all you do!
