Welcome Back!
I am excited to be teaching at Northridge this year! We are going to have a lot of fun and learn lots!
As you get your back to school things ready...

AP and Honors Chem you will need 2-4 composition notebooks depending on how big you write.
1 - 2 for lab
1 - 2 for notes and quizzes

Organic you will need 2 composition notebooks.

Regular you will need 1-2 composition notebooks.

I have seen them at Wal-mart, Target, and Kmart for 50 cents. I have also seen them at Staples and Office Depot for 25 cents. Later in the year they are $2-3. You will need these the second day of class.
