![]() With the school bell poised to ring, parents, students, and teachers are streaming into stores in search of supplies. Gone are the days of hop-scotching from one store to the next. This year it's all about getting everything in one stop. Here's what they'll be looking for. Students * Calculators - Printing, non-printing, pocket-size, or scientific, calculators in every shape, size, and price, continue to be among the best selling of all back-to-school supplies. * Pens, pencils, highlighters, markers - A necessity for every student, every school, everywhere. * Pocket calendar - One of the most underrated items, a pocket calendar helps with everything from dating an assignment to planning a research paper. * Cell phones - While talking during class isn't allowed, it's a family necessity for schedule coordination. * Ruled notebooks - Get a different color for each subject. This year consider going green by buying those made of recycled paper. * Binders and pocket folders - For organizing miscellaneous handouts and papers. * Backpack - Big enough to hold various shapes and sizes, but not too large for the child. College students In addition to the above, popular items for the college-bound include: * Planner - Electronic or paper, this must-have helps keep projects, papers, and assignments on track. * Sturdy backpack or messenger bag - While a shoulder-style messenger bag keeps things neatly arranged, a sturdy backpack (or one on wheels) easily accommodates the heaviest textbooks. * Laptop - An everyday essential for class work, research, and communications. * Flash drive - For those times when you can leave the laptop at the dorm, conveniently carry your work in your pocket. Teachers * Markers - Including fine-point, thick-point, and plain (non-toxic). * Colored chalk - Livens up the lesson and helps make an important point. * Index cards - Great for customized flash cards, teacher's notes, and general organization. * Post-it notes - Handy labels and reminders. * Color folders - Keeps classes, subjects and lesson plans together. * Tape - Both transparent and masking for multiple uses.
