Most was self-explanatory, but why ziploc bags for only the girls?
The boys would bring in paper towels. ;) That way I could get both, and not have tons at the same time.
OK so I have to ask, because it's a rule at our school too and it drives me nuts.. WHY no mechanical pencils?! Wouldn't it save you from having kids ask to sharpen pencils a million times a day?! I LOVE mechanical pencils. It's all I used as a kid and all my kids use at home. I detest sharpening pencils. Seems like as a teacher it would get annoying to have 20 kids asking all day long. Just wondering!
Also, we buy dry erase markers too, and I always buy the colored ones since they don't specify, thinking they're more fun! Is there a reason you prefer blue or black? Maybe I should start doing that instead!!
Renee the no mechanical is because they tend to pull the lead out and flick it at eachother. Or at least thats my reasoning, plus they like to "steal" them from eachother. I try to have a jar of sharpened pencils that they can get from, with a jar that they can put the broken ones in, to avoid the sharpening problem, doesn't always work but its better than the injuries. ;) The red and green dry erase markers don't like showing up a lot of the time, I use them, just not as often as I do the blue and black, so they don't get worn out as fast. ;)
