Items+Needed+in+the+Classroom

You might call us selfish individuals, but as teachers we are always in need of items in our classrooms. I will post a list on this page of items that I could use in my classroom, some just for a specific lesson that I am teaching, some that I use constantly. If you are able and willing to donate any of these items to my classroom I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you so much for your support!

*Always Needed* - Ziploc bags (any size, but especially sandwich size) - Dry erase markers - Age-appropriate magazines (to cut up and use in language activities) - Measuring items (when we do our measuring unit in math I like to have lots of different containers that they can use to measure and weigh, so as you empty out containers will you please send them to school. Especially containers that are a perfect measurement - exactly 1 pint, exactly 1 quart, etc because that helps them understand capacity and weight better) - brown paper lunch sacks - quiet games (that can be used for indoor recess) - paper plates, cups, utensils - tinfoil, saran wrap - Kleenex - Clorox Wipes

*Currently Needed* ﻿I am trying to create a listening center in my classroom, where I will books on tape/cd and students can listen to fluent readers. This will help improve their own fluency and comprehension while reading. If you have any CD or tape players that you are no longer using at home, please send them to school. With the invention of the Ipod, these are becoming almost obsolete, but I can use them!
