WELCOME BACK!


Greetings to all my new and previous students! I hope you have all had an enjoyable summer. My husband and I have been traveling and seeing all kinds of new sites. We explored a cave in Missouri and went canoeing down the Elk River. Coach Seirer and I just got back from Estes Park, Colorado where we went hiking and fishing. We saw moose and had a black bear on our deck. I was able to spend time on the family farm and help with harvest. Now it’s time to get ready for a new school year. This will be my 30th year teaching first grade at Wakefield School. I’m excited to meet the new class and start our year. The classroom will look a little different as new windows were just put in. The enrollment schedule is listed below:

Monday, August 9 (new students only) 8:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
Tuesday, August 10 12:00 – 8:00 p.m.
Wednesday, August 11 7:30 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.

This is the supply list for First Graders at Wakefield School. Please do not purchase any additional supplies that are not listed. Our desks are limited to space and extra supplies will be sent home. Coach Seirer will be selling Y-Tie shoestrings during enrollment times. I highly suggest you purchase a set so that tying shoes and keeping them tied will be much easier.

2 boxes of 24 crayons
1 Small School Box with Closure
Watercolors (Prang preferred)
1 pkg. Pencils
2 Large Erasers
2 - 8 oz. Bottles of Elmer’s glue
1 Large Box of Tissue
1 box of 100 Sandwich size ziplock bags
1 container of 35 Clorox Disinfecting Wipes
1 Rounded Tip Scissors (Crayon or Fiskar preferred)
Gym Shoes (white soles & Y ties or Velcro)

It will be only a few more days until our first day in the hive! Enjoy what is left of your summer vacation and I’ll see you all soon!
