Welcome back to an exciting new school year, second grade families!  I have sent family letters home in the mail with school supply information.  Let me know if you didn't get one.

Below is a list of suggested supplies that would be helpful for students to have in class. The school will of course provide any materials necessary for a successful school year.  

*pencils (3 or 4 boxes)          *2 glue sticks                *scissors
*1 yellow highlighter *crayons, colored pencils 
*a durable, plastic 2-pocket folder to be the “Take-Home Folder “
*a pack or two of cap erasers                     *pencil box
*a water bottle that closes                 *1 box of tissues
*hard-cover 3-ring binder, 1 and 1/2 inches (for portfolio of work) 
*2 pocket folders, 1 red, 1 blue (no fasteners needed)
*ear buds (for use with our i-pads) 


 If you are willing to donate any extra items for back-up supplies we would greatly appreciate that.  Also, many families ask me if there are any other items our classroom might need.  The list below includes items we go through quickly and I would always welcome donations of any of these:

*tissues             *cleaning wipes         *plastic spoons         
*extra snacks (pretzels, goldfish, raisins)
*bottles of hand soap, pump style for our classroom sink

Please send any questions my way:  bpols@rsu1.org.  I am looking forward to working with your children!
