Painting Large Art

If I want to get started in acrylic painting, what are the basic materials I need?
I took an acrylic canvas-painting art class and would really like to pursue it as a hobby in my own home. What are the basic materials (specific brushes/paints/ect) I need to buy? What kind of brushes or colors of paint do I need to get (this is for medium to large canvases)? Kind of like an acrylic painting starter kit?
Also, can you reccommend any inexpensive but good quality brands of brushes and paints to start out with?
Thanks!
Start off with good brushes--http://www.dickblick.com/products/loew-cornell-12-piece-brush-sets/
You don't have to buy a large set---enough to get started #6, # 8 and a fan brush.
Sable brushes are good too --flat, roundshttp://www.dickblick.com/products/blick-masterstroke-pure-red-sable-brushes
This is a good quality canvashttp://www.taramaterials.com/ArtistCanvas/ProductCategory.aspx?path=005015001
Get what you find most comfortable to work on in canvas--9"by 12" , 11" by 14" or 16" by 20". Get at least four to start.
You need a basic set of colors in paint. You achieve other colors by mixing.http://www.dickblick.com/items/00607-1009/
