We are running low on Expo Markers and so I went through student desks in an attempt to reclaim extras for those that didn’t have one. I also pulled out colored pencils and markers to keep kids from drawing during class. Some kids felt that this was “stealing” and were not happy with me. I would just like say that I am not taking these things for my own personal use, I am putting them into the classroom supply to share with all students. In my disclosure it stated that the supplies brought by the students would be shared with all students. I told kids at the beginning of the year that if they did not want to share their supplies they needed to bring them home. It seems that some students now do not want to share their supplies with other students or have them be accessed only when needed. I have purchased many items that are used by all students and share them willingly. However most of those supplies have been taken an not returned, leaving me with very little to share with students.
I know there are still students who have colored pencils or markers in their desks. I am once again asking that if you would prefer that your child not share his/her art supplies please have them put them in their locker and bring them home this week.
