Supplies for my daughter going into 6th grade:

• 3-ring binder (2 ½ or 3 inch) or accordion file folder (with at least seven sections)
• 1 packet of notebook paper (loose leaf, NOT college ruled)
• 1 ruler – must have standard and metric measures (bendable/non-breakable)
• 1 dozen #2 pencils
• 1 dozen erasable blue or black pens
• 1 dozen correcting green pens (no gel pens, please)
• Separators for the binder (at least seven sections)
• Pencil pouch for inside the binder or accordion
• 2 spiral one subject notebooks (70 pages and full size)
• 1 durable pencil sharpener
• 2-two pocket folders
• Flash Drive (128 MB or larger)



WTF? They don't even have a friggin pencil shapener by the door anymore? Where the heck are my tax dollars going? I know it's not ending up in the teacher's pockets, and now I find out they don't even have pencil sharpeners?

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.
