What kind/how many binders should i get?

Question

i'm starting highschool, and i have eight periods. i don't think i need any for pep squad art or lunch XD

so i don't know if i should just get one big binder for the rest of my classes or 5 one inch binders for every class.

i need help XD so tell me what you think is best from experience (:

Answer 1

Try to hold off until you meet your teachers.  Some of them want a binder just for their class, so you can hand it in for them to look at.

You might want several smaller binders that you can switch off in your locker at lunchtime, so you don't have to carry a big one around all day.

Answer 2

I'd definitely say separate binders. One big binder becomes too much and the rings pop and papers go everywhere. Also, most teachers require you have a separate binder anyway. 5 different ones are good because it's for one class and you don't have to keep flipping through looking for things.

Answer 3

its not the BEST idea to hold off until you meet your teachers because when you go to those office supplie stores there won't be any thing available.  one of the teachers i had last year i will have again this year so i already kno what to get. just get the basics. the 1 inch binders should be good

Answer 4

I had two binders and just stuck all the rest of my books in them or stacked them up.  Most classes will just need a spiral notebook.  It works best if you take all the books from your classes before lunch and put them in one part of your locker, then put the rest of your books in another part, then you can just switch em around easily.
