Most of the needed supplies for fourth grade have been provided by 
the school district. However, the following list of items are 
recommended for the first day of school: 

Because we have added large science and social studies textbooks and 
their practice books, desk space is extremely limited. PLEASE DO NOT 
send your child to school with boxy pencil cases, rulers, spiral 
notebooks, crayons, noisy clicking ballpoint pens, and mechanical 
lead pencils that make a clicking noises, gel pens, scissors,or 
personal staplers. The school will provide any needed items NOT 
listed below. 
Your child should arrive with the following supplies: 
1 backpack or book bag (no rolling backpacks please)
1 two inch binder with the transparent pocket on the front
1 set of 5 tab dividers for a 3 ring binder
1 ream college ruled binder paper with a small supply of paper
2 Number 2 sharpened pencils for each day (no mechanical pencils!)
2 yellow highlighters, 1 red, and 1 green
2 green ball point pens (no mechanical/clicking pens!)
1 thick/thin colored markers to their backpack (24 to 32 count)
1 glue stick
1 assorted color pencils for backpack (8 to 12 count)
1 personal pen sharpener (with shavings catcher attached)
1 zippered pencil pouch for their 3 ring binder (No pencil cases!)
1 set of 5 clear sheet protectors for a three ring binder
1 clean sock without holes that has lost its mate 

The bold list below are "wish list" items that the students and I 
could use during the entire school year, particularly during the cold 
and flu season.
