Supply List

Ms. Wagster’s Supply List

Option 1:

Dear Parents, 
Last year, we tried something new with our supply list, which worked out beautifully!  Rather than listing all necessary supplies and asking you to search the world for the correct supplies, we thought it would make your life much easier to pay $35 to the office to cover the cost of supplies. I will then be purchasing items these items in bulk. Feel free to bring in your payment to office on or before back to school night Monday, August 14th. 

This is designed to be money-saving, since I will be able to purchase supplies in bulk, and I have carefully itemized the list and all costs involved.  The only three supplies that will not be included in the items covered by the $35 payment, and which you will have to purchase and bring yourself, are:

• Over-the-ear headphones in a plastic bag, labeled with student’s name (I STRONGLY recommend purchasing a good pair of headphones, for your student to use for several years.  Students become very frustrated with headphones that do not work well or do not block out sound.  Earbuds tend to tangle very easily and don’t block out sound well, which is frustrating for first-graders.  Please try to find the highest-quality, most tangle-free headphones possible. We use headphones multiple times throughout the day in the classroom. Think of it as an investment. You can spend a little more money and get a good set or a little money up front and end up replacing them often.  (Your student will also use them in future grades).
• 1 standard-sized back pack.  Please do not purchase the smaller-sized backpacks, as your student will be frustrated at not being able to fit books and papers neatly inside.  Book bags tend to be difficult for students to carry, especially when carrying heavy items.  Please do not purchase backpacks on wheels – these are surprisingly difficult for your student to navigate while walking in a line down the hallways.
• Water bottle labeled with child’s name.  Please be sure that the water bottle is easy for your child to open/close and refill.
