The Best School Supplies for Second Grade


These supplies are always sharp! 
Twistables colored pencils for coloring fine details and mechanical pencils for handwriting lessons and publishing are my favorite supplies!

Also on my back to school supply list:

Crayola 24 Crayons ( 2 boxes)

2 spiral notebooks wide rule

(4) 2 pocket folders- paper, NOT plastic

1 composition notebook– wide rule

several Elmer’s brand glue sticks

I bottle of Elmer’s liquid glue

a pencil case or box

Ticonderoga brand #2 pencils pre-sharpened

Fiskars pointed scissors

ruler with inches and centimeters

white eraser

fine point dry erase marker

Consider Purchasing Supplies for the Entire Class:

Some teachers prefer to collect a fee in the form of a donation from each family or use grade level or building funds to purchase supplies in bulk. This is a great option to be sure your class has exactly what you want or need!

Send your school supply list or donation request with your welcome letter or ask to have it posted in your school newsletter.

Whichever you choose to do, it is crucial that you get your supply list out to parents quickly so they can take advantage of sales and so that your class is ready to work on the first day of school!

    I love those for me, but I stopped letting my students use mechanical pencils. They spent more time messing with them than they did writing lol. Bless their little hearts. 🙂 My favorite item on our supply list is sanitizer! You can never have too much in first grade!

    Oh I do love those mechanical pencils! I also love colored pencils. Basically I love all school supplies. I visit the supply aisle at Wal Mart even when I don't need anything!
