[quote=Anonymous]Whhhhyyyyy do teachers keep requesting those black & white composition books year after year when they never get used?? My youngest is going on year 3 with the same damn notebook! I refuse to buy a new one because I know it won't get used. History has taught me that this is true. With my older kids, I always bought a new one each year. No more! In 1st grade, he used ~6 pages in it. It was used a journal and apparently the only time they had to write in their journals was when the teacher needed extra time to prep a lesson. In 2nd grade, he used one single page. I'm not even sure if it was school related, either, because it was a bunch of hash lines and the alphabet forwards and backwards. I use an exacto knife to cut out the used pages, tug the back of the notebook to see if the accompanying pages come loose, and slap a white sticker on the cover to write the new "purpose" of the notebook. I saw a school supply list for a K kid that included FOUR laundry detergents. What the what? AND four??? [/quote]
