In ADDITION -3 EXTRA Items Requested by Mrs. Russell 
ü  *1/2 binder (the skinniest one)   I will create a name label for the spine with your child’s name but initially, please label on the inside in a small cornerYou can choose any color but I really prefer the Avery® Durable View Binder with the clear pockets on the front and back. (Target/Walmart/Office Supply stores)
ü  A pack of any color pens except black, pink, or red!  Your child will use these for daily writing! 
ü  An additional ANY color or design 1 Subject, Wide Rule, Spiral Notebook  (label on the inside) 

OPTIONAL but recommended! These items simply offer extra choice and convenience:
Ø  Pencil tip erasers are optional but we LOVE them when our erasers break off!
Ø  *A good pencil sharpener (that holds shavings!!) is optional but recommended.
Ø  An EXPO eraser OR an old sock!! Your child will use a white board daily.
Ø  Colored pencils are not necessary but offer another choice to break the monotony! 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just a thought…   You may want to buy extra packs of the consumables (crayons, glue, markers, etc.) while they are the cheapest price of the year!  You can use these to replenish materials throughout the school year as needed or for use at home.  I will provide a labeled storage bin for your child to store extra supplies.  The children have access to it whenever they need to replenish or replace!! Or you can keep the extras at home!

**PLEASE REMEMBER OUR BLOCK TEACHERS!  THEY REALLY APPRECIATE
(AND NEED) KLEENEX AND CLOROX WIPES!

Finally, the brands we’ve chosen are simply our preference because we’ve discovered that they are the highest quality/durability.  Please do not feel obligated to buy brand specific, especially if price is a concern or otherwise!
