Questions…• Why not stick glue? – Because it dries out
faster than liquid glue and your pages can fall out!
• Can I use markers? - No; markers can bleed through the paper and cause your notebook to look sloppy. Only use markers on pages we paste into our notebook

• How often will I need these supplies? – EVERYDAY!
