Hi herdfans4...thank you so much for thinking about the KKIS Project and bringing down school supplies! You rock!! To answer your questions: no, we don't ask for notebooks as they don't use the same kind you can buy in the states (schools and especially elementaries are very particlular about what students use), you can bring the flashcards are long as they are bilingual, school let out on July 7th and starts again on Aug 22nd, we won't start reading to students again until the end of August or beginning of Sep - if you are still in Playa please let us know and we'll work you in. Since Carboncitos sold this summer and I am not in Playa right now to work this out, we are not sure that they will allow us to drop off school supplies. So I would ask that you walk north on 5th Ave to 32nd street and turn right towards the beach, go one block and on the corner to your right and across the street is a small, white condo bldg. Go up either stairway and drop them on the balcony on the left. Our maintenance man has been told to look there each day for them. Others school supplies that we are always in need of are pencils, blue pens, colored pencils, glue sticks and scissors...no markers or crayons! And thanks again. Gayle
