[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]for us last year (kindergarten):  writing child's name on each and every pencil, crayon, and marker -- in a fine point, Sharpie

CRAZY!!!  [/quote]

We might be at the same school.  I too thought it was crazy but the teacher was trying to theach the kids responisbility. (I asked the teacher why because I too thought it was CRAZY) So when a crayon was on the floor she could say "Larla, you dropped your crayon."  I know this because my kid was the worst offender for not taking care of his supplies and then always asking for more.  He did indeed learn to take better care of his supplies last year.  For any parent out there that hets the request to label every pencil/marker/crayon I would suggest using reutn address labels.  Print out a sheet with your child's name and then attach to the pencils.  It took me less than 15min to label everything.  So in this case the lesson to parents is to ask why, the lesson to teachers is to explain your reasoning so parents don't think you are crazy/greedy.[/quote]
