Dear Parents,
OK, it is time to pack those backpacks. Listed below are the items that children will need in school. Please remember that "less is more". Management skills will be much easier if supplies from home are kept to a minimum.
I will check in with the children each morning to encourage a communication routine, so, feel free to put notes in the Tuffy Folder. Tuffy knows that he sleeps in the backpack at night. Hopefully, he will remind your child to tuck him in. Thanks for the hard work you do at home during your busy mornings to help your child be ready to learn.
Items Needed the First Day and Daily:
During the first week of school:
I will supply writing folders, spiral notebooks, wooden rulers and a number of other items for all children. If you have any questions about supplies, feel free to email me: [email protected]
