If you’re going shopping before school starts, here is a list of

basic supplies. If you’ve already purchased supplies that don’t

match the list, don’t worry. Just bring what you have.

1 composition notebook

(These are usually black and white with no spiral binding.)

1 three-ring binder with one-inch or bigger rings

(Trapper Keepers are not large enough to hold 5 subjects)

1 math notebook

16 pocket folders

pens and pencils

You might also want to buy colored pencils, a ruler, and scissors,

although we have these in the classroom already.

That’s it for supplies. I’d also like you to bring a book you’re

reading. If you’re not reading a book right now, start thinking about

the kinds of books you like to read. We can look through the

classroom library to find a good one for you.

If you’ve had any interesting story ideas this summer, bring

those with you, too. Every year I write a story that features our

class on a wild adventure of some kind. This year I plan to set the

story in Europe with a thrilling train scene. I got plenty of plot ideas

on my trip!

By the time you receive this letter, I’ll be busy getting the

classroom ready for everyone. If you’re looking for something to do,

stop by. I’ll have plenty of jobs for volunteers! Just be sure to call

school first at 555-7769 to make sure I’m there.

Enjoy your last days of vacation and start looking forward to

next Tuesday. I know you’re going to like the “new and improved”

school and have a successful fifth-grade year.

I’ll see you next week!

Yours Truly,
