what to bring the first day of school

--a smile
--all the things on our supply list (see previous blog)
--grammar book
--latin book
--Story of the World (if an older sibling doesn't need it--please don't buy another copy just for our class)
--a lunch that doesn't need heating in the microwave
--a patient and indulgent attitude for a old, new teacher!

You'll receive our first literature book, William Bradford, on Tuesday along with the student science pages.

I'm excited and eager to get started! Pray for me as I finish up planning. I'll be praying for each of my students.

love,
Mrs. Tkach

I'm really getting excited about starting school with each of you. I hope you are as well and I hope you've been reading alot over the summer.

Here is our class' supply list.

1 2-inch 3-ring binder
2 pkgs wide-ruled loose-leaf paper
8 solid color folders
1 1-inch 3-ring binder
1 sturdy assignment folder
1 pkg. 4 x 6 inch index cards

We have many items (pencils, glue, colored pencils, scissors, glue sticks, rulers) that were donated to our class from last year.

As best as I can tell, this is all we'll need. Enjoy the rest of your summer. I'm going to pray for each of you before I go to bed tonight. Remember-- read, read, read!
