School Supplies

Hello Parents and Students,

Our first week in the classroom is about to come to a close! It has been so wonderful to get to know and learn with each new student in 3B!

Most students have all of their school supplies, but there are still quite a few that do not have everything that they need for school. I have put below all items that are necessary for class. Please go over the list with your child to see what they need for the classroom.

Most students are missing the spiral notebooks for each subject. These should all be separate to make it easier for organization of notes, worksheets, handouts, and other in-class projects.
 
For class all students should have:
One 2 Pocket Heavy Duty Poly Portfolio, Blue for Language Arts
One Blue 70 ct. Wide Ruled Spiral Notebook, Perforated for Language Arts

It should also be known that students need to have both the blue and pink Spalding notebooks as well as the Spalding phonogram cards. Those can be found at the website below:

In addition to all of the above supplies, we encourage parents to purchase the literature books that we will be reading this year:
The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis
The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling
The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint Exupary
Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi
Little House on the Prairie by Laura Ingalls Wilder
The Harp and Laurel Wreath: Poetry and Dictation for the Classical Curriculum by Laura M. Berquist

If they do not have something on the above list, it is preferred and encouraged that they get the missing supplies. If there is a problem, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Students should bring The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis on Friday or Monday morning.
They should also bring in both Spalding notebooks on Monday morning.
