I know quite a few other tumblr teachers out there have tried this, so I thought I would give it a go as well.

School is starting in just over two weeks and my classroom is in a state of chaos. Currently the carpet has been ripped out along with bookshelves and other things that (literally) fell apart when touched. Oh the joys of inheriting a man’s classroom of 10+ years…

The classroom supplies I have consist of…

  • desks
  • textbooks
  • dictionaries

I’m not sure if you know this, but that is not all what is needed for a functional class. I don’t have a budget to pull from, so anything I want is essentially from my own pocket. 

SOOOOOOO…. I was wondering if there were any kind folks out there that would like to help a teacher like myself out and purchase something from my Amazon Wish List?

PS. If there’s something you think I should add for a class of 8th graders, please let me know!

Tumblr has helped me a bunch by buying from my wishlist.  If you can help MissAt in her new room, that’d be awesome.

  2. onlyliveonce-x said: I’m intrigued, I hope you don’t mind me asking but you have to fund all this using your own money? What do the school provide? Surely to ensure that every child follows the correct curriculum & good grades the school should have to provide resources?

    I’m not sure what kind of 8th grade class your teaching (core subject? Sp. ed?), but snacks and suckers go a long way
