Materials needed

What you should have with you. Every day

Please keep in mind: I will always have extra materials available for students who have difficulty acquiring them. Parents, please do not hesitate to let me know if this is the case. I will, without judgment, provide everything a child needs for class.

Your Math Portfolio, which is:

    • A 3 ring binder, only for math class.

      • This will always be kept in math class. Some of the things below will be kept in your binder.

      • 2" width is perfect. Does not need to be a zipped binder.

    • A graph-paper style notebook

      • 80 pages minimum.

      • Having squares instead of lines makes it easy to make tables, graphs, and draw shapes

Your pencil case, with:

    • At least 2 pencils, preferably more than 5. (Always have more than one. Students, you will lose these over the year.)

    • At least 1 eraser

    • At least one highlighter (those students who like to colour-code may wish to have different colours)

A scientific calculator (it needs to be able to make exponents. You will use this all throughout high school math.)

A geometry set

    • A ruler (15cm is fine), a compass, a set square (right-angle triangle), a protractor


  • Lined paper

    • Having 15-30 sheets on hand at all times is fine. The rest can be kept at home.

Other Materials Mr. L will Collect at the Start of the Year

  • 1 package of whiteboard markers. (4. Any colour is fine, but darker colours show up better)

  • 1 package of white chalk (12 pieces.)

Good to keep on standby, at home

Extra stationary and writing supplies

  • Pencils, highlighters,

Extra notebooks (2-3)

Extra lined paper
