Amazon Wish List for Teachers

June 16, 2018 By Mary Amoson 1 Comment

Amazon Wish List for Teachers
New teachers and new to kindergarten teachers are asking and asking… what things do you LOVE for your classroom? I thought I would kindly make a list (an ever changing list) of all the things I use and love for my classroom. Welcome to Amazon Wish List for Teachers.

First, since we are in the real world, I am using Amazon links. The truth is… this is the primary way I choose to shop. At my door in 2 days is my jam. If you can find these things cheaper elsewhere, do it. I have just found my time is usually the most valuable thing I have and I am not a shopper AT ALL. Shop around. Compare prices. You do you. I use Amazon.

Next, yes… some of these item will be cheaper during back to school. Grab when they are cheap but I use Amazon when I run out. But as you are looking for classroom things, here is my wish list for teachers.

Basic Supplies & Consumables

These are the things I use each year and go through. Many of these items may be provided to you by your families, so you can even use this list to create a supply list.

-8 Pan sets of Crayola Washable colors (here)

Start off Your Classroom

Once you have what you NEED, these are the items I love and use every day, but I don’t have to purchase again and again because they last for so long. Some of these are pricer items but since I keep them in my classroom, they are worth it in the long run.  You can create a wish list for your classroom needs to share with your parents!

This week seemed to be the longest and slowest all This week seemed to be the longest and slowest all at the same time. In science, we dove into the water cycle. On Friday, we got to try some simple (covid friendly) science experiments. We melted colors ice cubes to show states of matter changes. Then we did small cups for sink float. We predicted if each item would sick or float, then tested out. We can choose f2f or virtual this week, so I only had 12 in the room with me and 8 at home.
