Have pencil/marker/scissor/paperclips EVERYWHERE!

I notice I get frustrated when I'm in a room and I have to search for a writing utensile!

Any kind of jar.. or bucket... would work!!!

The best pencil jar I saw had enough room for sharpies, pens, pencils, scissors, and thin markers!

All I need is to stick some sticky notes or stationary paper in a bucket right next to it and I'll be good!

Fun Things!

 Sponges that come packaged slightly damp. cut them in half and vaila! white board erasers

 For the younger grades!

That is a plastic red balloon. Underneath the red balloon there sits a basket. The kids were always asking, "Where do I turn this in?" so now she says turn your papers/folders in under the red balloon.

Attention Class

I saw a 2nd grade teacher use a wind chime to get the students attention when they had a hard time getting focused when she talked.

Loved it!!!

Staples in the Classroom

Can't erase marker on an anchor chart... can you?

No worries

Cheaper version- chop stick with a pom pom on it. 



Strong magnets!
