The Ultimate School Supplies List for Distance Learning You Didn’t Know You Needed in 2020

The Ultimate School Supplies List for Distance Learning You Didn’t Know You Needed in 2020

Hey, #PashFam! Back to school shopping might look a little different this year, so Passion Planner wants you to be fully ready for your distance learning experience. 

Distance learning is an education that is facilitated online, rather than a classroom. As the face of schooling is changing to a completely virtual experience, we are here to make sure you have everything you need to succeed.

Here’s a list of unique school supplies for online learning that college and high school students need for the upcoming school year. 

1. LAPTOP TRAY - $34

Laptop Tray with Laptop on Top

A laptop tray is a staple for distance learning, especially if you are doing work on your bed, couch, or floor. These trays are portable, so they can be used wherever you go. It has a mini drawer to place your pens, notepads, stickers, or any other fun school supplies. It’s adjustable to lay flat or angle toward you, and even includes holes to prevent your laptop from overheating.

2. BLUE LIGHT BLOCKING GLASSES - $20

Two Pairs of Blue Light Blocking Glasses (Black Rim and Spotted Animal Print Rim)

Distance learning can require you to be on your computer, tablet, or phone for a long period of time. Digital screens have a harmful blue light that can cause headaches and eye strain. These blue light blocking glasses have protective layers on the lenses to block harmful blue light from your screens. One thing we love about them is that they come in a two-pack, which provides a spare for your backpack. There are a variety of pairs to choose from that match your style. These glasses are non-prescription, so if you already wear glasses, consider investing in blue light blocking lenses in your prescription. 

3. PASSION HIGHLIGHTERS (12-pack) - $19.99

12 Pack Passion Highlighters

Passion Highlighters offer both a chisel tip and a fineliner tip that are water-based and bleed-resistant. The double-sided feature is convenient for school because you can underline with the fine tip and highlight important sections with the chisel tip. The Passion Highlighters come in Essential and Vintage colors so you can choose which aesthetic fits your note-taking needs!

4. EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE - $50

Learning from home can add more files and programs to your computer that may take up a lot of storage. Another item to add to your list of school supplies for college is an external hard drive. Having an external hard drive is great because it will allow you to have more space on your computer for all of your papers, programs, or other digital resources you need. By storing files that could be slowing down your computer, an external hard drive can also prevent it from stalling or freezing, especially during an important Zoom lecture.

5. NO TOUCH DOOR OPENER TOOL - $16
