Back-to-School Favorites {2017 Edition}

Whether you are ready for it or not, the back-to-school season is here. You can’t miss it!  Walking into  stores we are bombarded with reminders of the season. I put together a list of a few of my back-to-school favorites. 

Classroom Favorites

Let’s be honest, our classroom is our home away from home. So, why not make it comfortable and cozy for you and your students. When I say comfortable and cozy, I don’t necessarily mean to go and purchase all new furniture. I just think that having certain supplies will make you more comfortable in your teaching and learning environment.

  1. Sony Bluetooth Speaker– love this! It connects with my phone and sounds great in the classroom.
  2. Mr. Sketch Markers– these are great for making anchor charts. I let my students use them as a reward.
  3. Chimes– chimes are a great way to get the attention of your students.
  4. Pencil Sharpener– a good sharpener is key. I have had this X-ACTO sharpener for years now!
  5. Student Dry Erase Boards– these are great for a quick check-in with students.
