Aside from pencils, paper, an umbrella, and class materials... whats inside your backpack might look a bit different this year. Following is a list of must-have items for your backpack.
Disposable Mask
While most people have cloth mask to wear, it's important to have back ups incase your mask isn't clean or someone didn't bring theirs.
Hand Sanitizer
In most cases, you will touch and encounter many surfaces. While washing your hands might not make the cut for your 10 minutes to go to your next class, hand sanitizer is an easier solution.
Gum
When you're wearing a mask... you can smell your own breath, which could be bad. Where bad breath was your neighbors problem in the past, it's now yours. So, after your lunch loaded with garlic and onions you'll be relieved to have a stick of gum.
All in all, this year is only turning out to look slightly different. Adapting to change is the first step.
