• Each volume will be used for about 1 quarter of the year. You need a copy of Motion immediately.
• It is recommended that you get all of the textbooks 3 hole drilled at Office Depot on I-10 near the beltway for about $1.00. You should do this so that each text can be kept in a 3 ring binder. If you do this, the book will last longer, and can be sold at the end of the year. You may certainly mark in your text, but remember that excessive marking may reduce the resale value.
• You should put your name on the inside cover of the text, and next to the spine on another page.

Supplies:

• One 3 ring (1&1/2 inch) hard sided binder (It must contain textbook, answer sheets and labs). You must bring this binder to class every day.
• Small pack of Looseleaf lined notebook paper. Graph paper can also be helpful.
• Metric ruler
• Protractor
• #2 pencils, some different colored pencils for diagrams (no red), and blue or black pens
• 2 or more dry erase markers.
• The St. Pius assignment notebook

St. Pius Supplies:

• Answer forms are available for the text, or activities can be done on plain paper. The forms will be posted on the website.
• Lab sheets will be supplied for some labs.
