Suggested School Supplies - Mr. Casey/Mrs. Lawson - 5th grade – Room 14/15 Please label everything with your child's name. We have ordered individual planners for each student to record assignments. The cost is $3.50 and is included in the Donation Request section of our first day packet. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Backpack (that will fit under or on the back of your chair) Reusable water bottle (you’ll need a 32oz one for science school anyway) 3-ring binder with at least 5 divisions or tabbed dividers Blue spiral notebook (70-page) Pencil pouch, inside binder containing: * pencils and erasers * pencil sharpener or mechanical pencil lead * 2 blue or black ink pens * red correcting pen or pencil * fine-line dry erase marker(s) 6. Ruler with both standard and metric measurements - will be needed both in school and for homework 7. Personal calculator - if purchasing a new one, Texas Instruments (TI-34). This calculator is available at Staples/Office Max/Target for ~ $20. This is similar to the calculator we will learn to use in class and will be usable through 9th grade. Your student needs a calculator that does order of operations and scientific notation for middle school math. This is a tool that will allow us to study number patterns and relationships; it will not be used as a crutch for solving simple math problems. If you purchase a different calculator, that is fine, but the teachers will not be able to instruct your student in its use. 8. Highlighter pens. 9. Colored pens or pencils. 10. Protractor 11. 4 Composition books (ie. 100 sheets, 9 ¾” x 7 ½”). Two with lined pages, two with grid pages. 12. Clipboard 13. USB drive may be helpful for transporting technology projects that are not done online Some of these supplies will be used up, vanish or fall into disrepair during the year. Please check with your child from time to time, to see that his/her supplies are complete. Any additional donations of the above supplies are greatly appreciated and will be shared with all students in the class. This list is also available on our website: www.tinyurl.com/room1415
