All 5th Grade Parents.....

Dear parents,

Please check in with your child Thursday morning or afternoon to be sure they have their required supplies. Many students did not have glue sticks and scissors for Literacy work yesterday and today, which wastes a lot of valuable class time. On Thursday, students will begin using a red, blue, and black pen, for revising and editing their work. They will need these pens in their zippered pouch the rest of the year.

A copy of the 5th grade supply list was sent home the first week of school, but if you no longer have it, you can go to the EBS website/Parent Info/School Supplies/Wish List, and print another copy. Please let me know if you are unable to purchase these supplies, and I will provide them for your child.

Sincerely,
Lynn A. Moos
5th Grade
Ellen Browning Scripps Elementary
