I have a question for all you tax experts out there in net land.

	If a teacher buys materials for her class, can she deduct them
	as business expenses?  If so, how detailed should the receipts be?


By "materials" I refer to items she buys for the benefit of the classroom
and her pupils.  For example, if she furnishes an aquarium, or if she buys
cookies for the class, etc. can she claim these as business expenses?


Hope someone can help me with this one.

Thanks,

Miguel
