Note: We may choose to buy these supplies as a group. We will discuss this the first class.

Supply List—AR 271

Note which supplies you need each session. Your class participation grade will be adversely affected if you do not bring in your supplies. I will have a list on our blog weekly. SInce you will not have lockers, it will behoove you to be sure of what you need ahead of time.
