It really depends on where she teaches and what they provide. I’d consider getting her a gift card to a teacher supply store or office supply store so she can buy what she needs at that time.
In general, schools tend to have less of a budget for “extras” like classroom decorations (posters, bulletin board supplies, props or manipulatives), but it really depends on the district. Most of the time, students will supply things like art supplies and basic school supplies, but if she teaches in a lower socioeconomic area, that might not be true.
The best thing to do is either get a gift card or take her shopping right before school starts when she’s setting up her classroom–just put an IOU in her graduation card or something like that.
A sedative:)
At any grade level, she’ll need the ‘obvious’ things that we all forget about:
tape dispenser, stapler, pens, 3 hole punch, notepads, sticky notes, rubber bands, a desk calendar, paper clips, a timer, stamps and stamp pad, hot glue gun, pocket charts.
I bought a small laminator for $75 at Sams to keep in my classroom and I’m so glad I did.
You could always get her a gift certificate to a teacher supply store or a book store so she can build her classroom library.
I have a mini fridge in my room that is very handy and I also have a padded glider chair that I LOVE!!
1. A good pair of grown up scissors. I never the children use these. Too sharp.
2. A sturdy teacher bag for carrying all that work in
3. A rolling cart that folds up for easy storage for carrying all the work that won’t fit in number 2
4. Plenty of file folders- I recommend colored ones for easy categorization of work in number 1 and 2 and in filing cabinets
5. A label maker
6. Hand Sanitizer
7. A lunch bag of some kind
8. Good highlighter
9. Colored pens
10. Permanent markers in various colors
11. Glue Sticks (the big ones)
12. Swiffer Duster and Mr. Clean Magic Erasers
13. Paper clips
14. Stapler and box of staples
15. Hole Puncher (3 ring)
16 Plastic Crates to hold books, magazines and other classroom items
17. A nice frame to show off that new diploma and/or teaching certificate
18. A bell like you see at a counter
19. A digital timer with alarm
20. Right before school starts in the fall places like Wal-Mart and Staples have great sales on crayons, markers, colored pencils, etc. Wait till then to get those kinds of things. Every grade level can use them.
21. Index cards of varied sizes
22. Post it notes of varied sizes
23. Lysol or other disinfectant
24. Fingernail polish remover (with acetone) to remove permanent marker from items she uses over and over.
25. A personalized coffee mug is great!
26. Roll of quarters for the drink and snack machines
27. Hard bound 3 ring binders (An absolute must)
28. Large Manila envelopes. I take them and write a note like: Welcome back_______________. Here are your assignments. Please complete and return by_____________. We are glad you are back!
29. Two drawer filing cabinet
30. Find a teacher supply store and take her when she finds out her specific grade level
31. A calendar (hanging and for the desk)
32. Mints, hand lotion,travel toothbrush, small sewing kit (can you say “My button just came off”?)
33. Tape dispener (like the ones you see on peoples desks)
35. Start shopping places like Goodwill and yard sales to pick up cheap and discounted books for children to read in the classroom. You might find classroom items there too.
36. A tray for her desk drawer. The one that hold pencils, clips etc.
37. Rubber bands.
38. You can find great deals on puzzles and games at places like Dollar General or The Dollar Tree
I hope this gets you started.
everything…it would be best just to get her a gift card to staple or office max etc…
