Supplies for Home Schooling Kids

Video Transcript

"Before you get started, one of the other most important things is to have all the right supplies. The cool thing about home schooling or tutoring is the supplies are almost just pennies, they are so cheap. For everything you see here which amounts to, if you get it on sale, under ten dollars. If it's not on sale, it's still under twenty easily. Just for that amount, I can educate a child faster and better than almost any public or traditional private school and it's just so easy. Here are the lists that I would say you need, starting with the binder, get yourself a nice three ring binder, get yourself some folders that have holes so they can clip into the binder and that will be your worksheet station, where you can keep your worksheets. Get yourself some three ring regular notebooks, like five or six of them. Get them on sale, I got these for a quarter. And skinny markers. I like skinny markers because when you use sharpies to do things, sometimes it bleeds through and just regular pens, pencils. Children usually are taught to use pencil until they reach a certain age and that's always good. Make sure you have a sharpener. Stapler, if you want to make little booklets for them, three by five cards, we're going to use a lot of three by five cards, nice to have a box to keep them in. This is like a ninety nine cent box. Rubber bands just to keep separate your different three by five card stacks of different types of learning materials. And if you can get handwriting paper, that's really important to work on their handwriting. If you can't find it in the store or it's too expensive,you can use your computer. Just use the underline and the dash line and play around with the sizes until you find that you can make your own handwriting paper on your computer and just print it out real lightly because it saves ink and you don't really want it to be dark and there you go."
