Getting Ready

It is almost time to go back to school! I can't believe how fast this summer went! On Tuesday, I will head to school and start a new year. I have already gotten my binders for each class that will hold my notes and handouts.

I have labled them on the side according to which class it is. I have set myself up with some pretty tough classes, so hopefully I didn't over do it! Also, I like to do something fun for the front of each binder. Last year I had put drawings that I made in the fronts. This year I did some collages of sorts.

For my Advanced Math binder, I saved candy wrappers and taped them onto a piece of computer paper.

For my Chemistry binder, I took blue and red thread and taped it down to the paper in a swirly pattern.

For my AP European History binder, I dug through my button jar to find a lot of white and cream ones to make this design.

For my AP Language and Compostion binder, I took scraps of fabric and taped them down to a paper in a striped design.

And, for my Economics binder I used pictures that I have taken and made a collage on my computer.

I still have some summer work that needs to be finished. Because I chose to take AP (Advanced Placement) classes, I had to complete some things over the summer for those classes. Well, I procrastinated until the month of August to work on them. Not a very smart idea. Now I am cramming to get it all done in time.

I am excited about going back to school and seein all of my friends, but I am sad that the summer is over already.
