Mrs. Haggenmaker’s Supply List
Supplies needed for Algebra II/Trigonometry and Pre-calculus 2017-2018
Please have supplies ASAP. We will begin working August 8, 2017.
Supplies needed for all classes:
Three-ring binder—may be used for other classes as well—Stay organized! Use dividers.
Plenty of loose leaf paper to be kept in the binder; turn in one pack of loose leaf paper for the classroom
#2 pencils with erasers—mechanical pencils work well (make sure to have extra lead and erasers); turn in one pack of pencils for the classroom—Do all work in PENCIL and use the eraser!
Scientific calculator (such as the Casio fx-300ES Plus or the TI-30XA) or graphing calculator (such as the Casio fx-9750GII or the TI- 84 plus) (A graphing calculator would be very helpful and can be used in the future. We use them quite often in pre-cal and analytical. The Casio fx-9750GII is much cheaper and works well.)--Keep your manual handy! See the note about calculators at the bottom.
Graph paper
Ruler
Protractor
Small pack of colored pencils or markers for note taking
A personal device, when use is allowed in class, would be handy
