School supplies might not always be the typical pens and paper. It might be your approach to online learning or tools for managing your time. We asked our Facebook fans for some advice on the materials they absolutely must have for the school year. Their answers are great!
1. Flexibility
2. Sense of humor
3. Coffee
4. Paper and printer ink for printing schedules
5. Confidence
6. Dry erase board
7. Patience
8. A schedule
9. Google calendar
10. A great work space
11. A great attitude
12. Pencils, highlighters, binders, notebooks
13. Field trips
14. Chocolate
15. Highlighters, crayons, markers, colored pencils
16. Laughter
17. Checklists
18. Snacks
19. Alarm clock
20. Dictionary
21. Breaks
22. Coloring books
So get those notebooks, make those checklists, and make sure to laugh (and eat some chocolate) along the way.
