-**Card stock, colored, and white (They use these for report cards, certificates, and book covers.)

-**Laminating Pouches, 3 mil, 9 X 11 1/2 (Buy much more inexpensively online than in the store.)

-Full sized staplers and staples for the teachers and office

-Staple removers

-Index cards

-Coloring books appropriate for 5 year olds (ones that aren't full of -English games)

-Scotch tape

-Masking tape

-Toys for little children, which are strongly constructed, such as playskul. Used is fine. You can ask your church for outgrown toys. There isn't a lot of room outside to play, and it is all paved, so they can use things like jump ropes and playground balls, but not badminton sets or anything that depends on lots of space (except at camp, of course).

Things not to bring: notebook paper, or copy paper, composition books or binders. Paper is very heavy, so it ends up being less expensive to buy it in country, except the card stock and construction paper which are more expensive in the DR, and often not available in reams. They do not use folders or notebook paper in the DR schools. They do not use binder notebooks either. (They use little stapled notebooks mostly, that are pretty inexpensive in country.)

**asterisk by a few things that are hard to get there, that would be especially helpful.

 I will have one (free) checked in suitcase which will be filled with donates! :-)

Thank you!!!!
