5th Grade
2024-2025
As your child prepares to transition to West Reading Elementary Center, we know that you and your child are concerned about their success in a new building. It is our belief, based on past experience, that daily organization is a key to ensuring students’ success.
We ask that parent(s)/guardian(s) please purchase the following 5th grade supplies for the 2024-2025 school year. For those of you who have had 5th graders before, the list has been greatly simplified over the years.
· Technology Gear:
Earbuds with a wire to plug into an iPad and an earbud case/bag to keep them safe. Earbuds are used daily. An extra set as a spare is heavily encouraged.
**Wireless earbuds are not allowed.**
· Everyday Gear:
- Large Sturdy Backpack
- 1 large pack of regular pencils (add some at a time as needed throughout the year)
- 1 pack of colored pencils
- 1 pack of multicolored Highlighters
- Erasers (regular AND eraser top)
- Pencil Sharpener (hand held)/No battery types please
- One spiral notebook (simple one-subject-not a super thick one)
- One box of tissues (class donation)
- Personal Water Bottle with name on it. (optional)
NO Binders, NO Lined Paper- these items are no longer used in 5th grade
We look forward to welcoming your child to West Reading Elementary!
Sincerely, West Reading 5th Grade Faculty
