Hello! I'm Miss Richter and I will be your 5th grade teacher this year! I can't wait to meet you all Wednesday, the 10th at 8:30 am. Keep reading to learn about me and to find out what school supplies you will need (I will have supplies for you in the classroom if you need them.) 

 I love running! Well, to be honest, I love traveling to run races! My best friend and I like to run 10ks and half marathons. We have also run a few marathons (26.2 miles!). Our favorite places to run are at Disneyland and Walt Disney World. We have run the New York City Marathon and the Marine Corps Marathon in Washington, DC. We love earning and displaying the medals we get when we cross the finish line. I will share pictures of them with you when we start school.  

 I can't wait to share my favorite book series with you! Some of you may have seen my classroom last year and already have an idea what it is. I look forward to reading the first book with you and using it to learn grammar and to study narrative writing. 

 I know many of you are wondering about school supplies. Shopping the school supply sections is one of my favorite things to do. Now is the best time to purchase notebooks, pencils, colored pencils, scissors, etc. It is always fun to pick out the colors and designs you like.  I will have supplies for you at school if you need them, but I know a lot of you want to pick out your own. 

4 Notebooks (8 1/2 x 11) or composition books (size does not matter) 

Pencils (lots of them!)

Scissors (always good to have a pair! You will use them in middle school too!)

Colored Pencils or crayons

Bottle of white glue

Pencil Box

 I can't wait to meet all of you! 

Miss Richter
