Back to School Supply List

 

NOTICE: THE ITEMS ON THIS LIST WILL BE USED DURING THE REGULAR SCHOOL DAY.  THEY MAY BE BROUGHT FROM HOME ON A VOLUNTARY BASIS, OTHERWISE, THEY WILL BE FURNISHED BY THE SCHOOL.

I know how busy this time of year is and I want to help make it easier. I am giving the parents an option to pay a $30 fee to cover each student’s supplies.

You can start paying the $30 donation to the office at back to school night or anytime after school starts. I have already purchased these items for this year. If you would rather purchase them yourselves, they must meet the description I have listed below. It is more efficient for me to have all the supplies the same color and type.

I have already purchased the following items:

  • Colored pencils (24 pack) and additional art supplies
  • Plastic plain folders with metal paper holders and paper pockets. Blue, Yellow, Red, and Green. Folders are plain, no designs or images.
  • Composition notebooks/Black, Yellow, Red
  • Scissors/Pencils/Erasers
  • Glue
  • Copy paper
  • Highlighter/Expo markers. Skinny black only 15-20.
  • Party supplies/Birthday desk
  • Prize bin: Fun stuff that cost less then $1 each
  • Reward stickers: various variety
  • Christmas/Mother’s Day gifts/Father’s Day gifts
  • Service project card material
  • Rendezvous supplies
  • Pencil Boxes

Each student will still need to bring from home:

-Headphones/earbuds-labeled with their name.

-Backpacks are not to be brought. ONLY lunch bags are needed if they are bringing a lunch from home.

-Water bottles are optional for students to bring for their use during class time. Lanyards are optional, I will provide them with a shirt clip.

BFG Project DUE MAY 23rd

 

BFG Project

Our class is reading the BFG! (Big Friendly Giant) It is one of our favorite read-alouds. One of our final projects we have in 4th grade is creating and presenting giant-sized objects that would be suitable for the BFG to live among the “human beans.” Your kids are aware of the math they need to configure to create these items, however, they might need a little guidance from you to finish this project at home.


Here are the requirements:  The item your child chooses must be 4 times the size of a regular human bean item. Examples might include a toothbrush, books, car keys, and socks. (Example if the toothbrush is 4 inches long, we times it by 4 and now we have a 16-inch toothbrush.)

The item must be practical. (We need to be able to carry the item to and from school.) Have fun with this as it is something for them to be creative and enjoy!

Students can start bringing in their items when they complete it, starting on May 19, but we will present our projects the day we watch the BFG movie and drink “frobscottle” on May 23. This will be a much-deserved fun project/party to celebrate all the hard work we have put in for testing! Thank you for your support- let me know if you have questions on this project!
