1st Grade Supply List

First Grade Supply List

• Pencil box to keep their things at school
• 10 boxes of 10 pencils (brands like Alcott and Lovett do not sharpen well)
• 4 packs of pencil cap erasers (hopefully, will last entire year)
• 2 - 4 oz. bottles of glue
• scissors (put name on)
• 1 pack 24 count crayons- Put name on box. (I would buy several boxes while they are on sale. First graders go through crayons quickly.
• 1 pack of 2 EXPO dry erase markers (Students will use these on personal dry erase boards for various activities.)
• 1 highlighter
• 1 pack 100 index cards
• 1 box of ziplock baggies (sandwich size - these are to keep their math cards in and for other activities.)

Our class would greatly appreciate a donation of hand sanitizer, Kleenex, baby wipes

Almost there!

Hey guys,

I have been working really hard to get our room ready for the new year. I am slowly, but surely checking things off of my beginning of the year list. I hope you guys are getting excited. We have a lot of fun and learning ahead of us. Enjoy your last few days of summer vacation!!

Welcome to First Grade!!

Hi Everybody,

Welcome to first grade and the 2010-2011 school year. I am very excited to get to know all of my new students and their parents. I hope each one of you is as excited about the new year as I am, though I will admit that saying good-bye to summer is always hard. It's my favorite season of the year.

I will have high expectations for your child both academically and behaviorally. I hope that we are on the same page with that. From my experience, children will work to our expectations. But we need to work as a team toward one goal, preparing your child to be successful in his/her academic career. My first priority is to keep your child safe and then to prepare them to be ready to go on to second grade and be successful.

I will work closely with you throughout the year to keep you up to date on the progress of your child. We try to send home weekly newsletters as well as notes throughout the week if needed. However, if you have any questions throughout the year, please feel free to contact me at school during my scheduled break time or after 3:10. I will let you know my break time as soon as I do.

Your child will receive a supply list and classroom information on the first day of school. They will also have several papers that will need to be filled out and returned as soon as possible. Please get these back to school in a timely manner.

Enjoy these last few days of summer and I will see you and your child on Wednesday, August 4. Remember, our instructional day will begin at 8:00 this year. I will be in my classroom ready to greet your child at 8:45. See you then.

Ms. Mullins
