Supplies and Things We Need

This supply list has the basic tools needed to be successful in 4th grade.

  1. Backpack or book bag
  2. Gym shoes that can be worn as school shoes when wearingg boots outside
  3. Pencils at least 2 and these should be replaced as needed.
  4. Notebook paper, loose leaf, 2 packages (more will be needed later)
  5. Spiral Bound Notebook (more as this is used up)
  6. Crayons (box of 24 or 64)
  7. Ink pen or fine tip marker
  8. Ruler
  9. Sturdy scissors
  10. Bottle of School Glue
  11. Pencil sharpener with case to collect shavings
  12. Water Bottle (probably the most important item for staying sharp mentally)

We go outdoors to recess all year unless the wind chill hits -10 below zero°. Winter gear is necessary to be comfy. Be sure to have:

  • Warm hat. Most heat is lost through the head. Ear muffs or sweat bands aren't enough to keep warm. Ski masks are ok as long as vision isn't blocked.
  • Heavy coat. not a jacket during cold weather unless you wear several layers.
  • Snow boots are better that tennis shoes. No sandals please, till spring.
  • Mittens are better than gloves but gloves are better than nothing.
  • Snow pants are a good idea if you want them.
  • Sweater or sweatshirt, if the classroom is chilly for you. (not your coat)

Winter gear located now will make it easier when that first blizzard hits in November. Its not necessary to bring it until winter. Please put your name on all your things. They look just like everyone else's things.

Special projects sometimes require special materials. I'll post that here, near the top of the page.

Remember! You need your name on your supplies and gear.

It is your responsibility to take good care of your materials and to keep them organized and ready for use.
