Greetings Parents!
Thank you very much for ensuring that your child has all of the
correct supplies to kick off a successful school year! As you know, the
students are encouraged to bring in their school supplies on Wednesday evening
during the “Meet the Teacher” event, so they can organize their desks
accordingly. Please be aware of the important details, which will allow for
greater efficiency while settling in.
·
NOVELS:
Thank you for purchasing all of the wonderful, classic literature for your
child to read this year! Since we will not need all of the books at once, we
will ask that you only bring the novel that we are currently studying. Your
child will need The Secret Garden
first, so you may keep the rest at home until we need it. (You can leave the
Poetry book at home for now, as well.) Please write your child's first and last
name in/on the cover of each novel.
·
SPIRAL
NOTEBOOKS: We apologize for any confusion about the quantity of spiral
notebooks that were listed on the school supplies list. Your child will need five, 70 paged spiral notebooks, and one, three subject spiral notebook,
which contains 120 pages.
·
EXPANDABLE FOLDER: Please ensure that your
child has an expandable folder with 12
files in it. We will label
each tab as a class on Friday.
·
LOOSE
LEAF PAPER: Your child was asked to have 8 packages of loose leaf paper for
fifth grade. These will be brought in gradually throughout the school year; you
can expect to send in two packages per quarter. Please only bring in two packages for now, and leave the rest at home.
Thank you!
·
CLASSROOM
ESSENTIALS: Please do not bring in any disinfecting wipes, paper towel rolls,
facial tissue, or hand sanitizer just yet! I will email families alphabetically
throughout the year, as we need more supplies. If your last name beings with A,
B or C, you can expect to bring these in sooner than later. ;)
·
SOCKS:
If you have any socks that you are willing to part with, please feel free to
bring them in so we can use them as white board erasers. Thank you!
·
CLIPBOARD: The students will all store
their clipboards in a crate, to maximize the space in their desks. Please make
sure your child’s name is clearly written on the clipboard in Sharpie marker.
·
COPY
PAPER: You may bring both reams on Wednesday. (Thank you!)
Thank you again very much for providing your child with all of
these supplies. We understand that the list seems lengthy, but with care and
organization, these will last all year!
Yours in Preparedness,
Miss Pantalena :)
