Amazon Teacher Favorites For Your Classroom

I have put together a little list of my most used Amazon teacher favorites! From supplies I use daily in my classroom to a few staples in my closet, I hope you enjoy this list! This may even give you some ideas of things you can add to your amazon classroom wishlist.

Here are a few of my favorite teacher related Amazon picks…

Here are my top amazon picks featured in a collage. From classroom supplies to clothes.
  1. Cheetah Casual Top– Love this one for the higher neckline!
  2. Laminating pouches– I have tried the less expensive brands to try to save money, but Scotch for durability.
  3. Stripe T shirt. I wear this one often. It has a longer fit.
  4. Water Beads– This container has a lid. 50,000 beads. Need I say more?
  5. Scissors– These stay sharp to last you through all the sped prep!
  6. Velcro Dots– These are the most durable I have found.
  7. Swing Top Shirt– I love a basic but flattering top.
  8. Laminator– Do you know how many things I laminate as a SPED teacher? HA! I have gone through many different laminators and always come back to this one. Yes, I even prefer this over the fancier scotch ones.
  9. Stapler – I call this the magic stapler. Light weight, easy to use, and hasn’t failed me yet!
  10. HP Printer- Until I bought this printer, I always used to struggle with printing from home. This little guy is now my trust companion. I highly recommend an HP printer as well as the HP instant ink service.
  11. Astrobrights– If you have a large class, Astrobrights has many colors to fulfill all your color coding needs.
  12. Individual Whole Punchers– These are great for younger hands and can be incorporated into lots of fine motor practice.

And because we love a good real life picture…

Here are these three tops tried on by yours truly ha! I’m 5’2 and from left to right I am wearing a medium, small, small.

I hope you enjoyed this quick list of teacher things I am loving from Amazon. Let me know if you would be interested in seeing more blog posts like these!
