The list

We got the school supply list for school this year. It is so hard to believe it is 2 weeks away. It looks like mostly normal things...all but one. Any idea which one I think is a little strange? 

TWENTY glue sticks? Really? Are they going to be gluing each other together? Is this a school of the arts? Twenty? I thought first grade was where they started doing more writing and reading....and maybe less coloring and art (except for art class). Maybe it's FOR the art class. Maybe I'm out of touch with the reality of what is elementary school. I know full well that we (parents/families) provide supplies for the classrom, not our own child (in general) but TWENTYglue sticks per kid? Strange...
