Hi, everyone! As we are all setting up classrooms, it may become evident when you need some things. I know that we had a kind-of wish list thread connected to Prime Day, but I don't know if that one is as easy to find for some folks. flanz asked for my wishlist on another thread, so I am posting it here. I have a very diverse classroom and am trying to find books that represent the students’ cultures. I have 21 students. The main language spoken in the homes of my students are : English (8 families), Korean (4 families), Arabic, Telegu, Azerbaijani, Vietnamese, Spanish, Pashtu, Nepali, Hakka Chinese and Mandarin Chinese (1 family each). So, my list will change as I find more books. I would be happy for suggestions! www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/DDGCYCJ4T5MW?ref_=wl_share |

Mine is weird this year as we are moving into a new building and I have no idea what to expect. Also I am using it to house things I think I'd like for my room. I'm also actively trying to get many of the challenged/banned books from other districts/areas into my classroom. If you have any suggestions on good diverse books or good books in general, please suggest them. www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1J6VV33DR305R?ref_=wl_share |

elaine, thank you so much for thinking of my son. You're extremely thoughtful. He is enjoying his students and seems to be very happy at work. We're hoping he can sign his lease w/in the next 2 days, so that he can stop the 2 hour commute. Meanwhile, I'll ask him if he needs anything. I must say that elementary school teachers have such cute stuff in their rooms. Your thoughtfulness makes up for the IP coffee pod that you convinced me to buy on Prime Day! hehe.

Just going now to get a pint of a chocolate concoction out of my freezer and spin it. Lunch.  |

Wasn't a spot to add a gift message... Learning Resources STEM Explorers Brainometry should arrive by 8/23 Have a wonderful year! Wow thank you so much! We have STEM bins the kids can work on before our official day starts as well as “Math bins” for fast finishers. I love having logic puzzles and games for them to use. These will be used all year-thank you so much! |

The literacy for liberation one is the one there is no way I can ask the district to oay for or to share with other teachers except maybe one. (sometimes we pool money and one buys a book and we share it) But really, any of them would be great |

One book that I didn't see on your list that I learned about in my ESL grad class is "The Name Jar" - great book to use with ELs and native speakers. |

Primary Phonics Set 2A is on its way. Wishing you a great year in the classroom! Thanks so much! Can't wait for it to arrive. Will be such a help with my struggling students that left second grade last year a grade below level and will enter third grade this year far below the expected target level. |

My district is so lucky! The Name Jar is actually a part of our reading curriculum in First Grade. If you haven't read it, it's fabulous and the kids love it!
