LINKY PARTY
I'm linking up with Mrs. Castro at Mrs. Castro's Class for her "Totally Terrific Teacher Tools @ Home" linky party! This linky party is to give an idea of what we use, as teachers, at home - we all know there are some great tools that are kept at home :) click the picture below to link up!
1.) My Cricut personal cutting machine. I would DIE without my Cricut! Momma got it for me for Christmas a few years ago and I am super happy she did. I've used it from making board games for a course in college to making the ice cream cone math you see on Pinterest for my students in 2nd grade during my internship! I cannot wait to have my own classroom so I can come up with all sorts of things to make.
2.) Scotch Thermal Laminator. I absolutely love my laminator. I haven't used it much because I don't have my own classroom yet, but I did use it to laminate my awards for the seniors in my sorority as parting gifts. I also used it to laminate clock numbers (:00, :05, :10, etc.) for my classroom during internship, but we didn't end up using them so I have them safe and sound. I cannot wait to be able to use the laminator more often!
3.) 31 Gifts Large Utility Tote. Man, this bag is a blessing in disguise. Right now, it's sitting in my room with tons of stuff in it - my teaching job notebook, clothes, clothes drawer dividers, papers, and other 31 Gifts products sitting inside... why am I telling you all this? Because this bag can hold a TON of stuff.. and it's not even heavy! I absolutely love 31 and all their personalization aspects.
4.) Notepads. I am a notepad hoarder. I live and thrive on lists. If I didn't make lists, I'd lose my mind. Specifically, I love the lists/notepads that are in the One Spot at Target (aka $1.00 spot!). They have the cutest notepads, which makes making lists all that more fun!
5.) Last but not least.. I absolutely am obsessed with post it notes. This obsession goes beyond my hoarding with notepads. I am not kidding... I have probably thousands of post it notes, and I use them constantly! I put them on my storage bins, in my car, on my wallet to remind myself of something, on the computer screen, anywhere! Post it notes are portable which I absolutely love, too! My name is Sara, and I am a notepad/post it note hoarder.
Those are my teacher tools at home - stop by Mrs. Castro's blog and link up!
The giveaways page has been updated - there are some AWESOME giveaways going on - one for a Silhouette Cameo and many others for some great gift cards or TPT resources!

Thanks for linking up Sara! I need to get a laminator of my own! And your bag seems familiar... :)
ReplyDeleteLaura @ Mrs. Castro's Class
LOL I don't have that exact bag, but I do have two other things in that print & then two things in the brown pin dot print (which is what my large utility tote is!)

I love 31! I'm having a party next week, and trying to convince my husband that I could sell 31 and teach at the same time. I have the organizing utility tote, it holds everything!!!! I am also a note pad lover, everytime i walk by the dollar bins in target I grab a handful. Thanks for stopping by my blog. I am now your newest follower.

Hi Jessica! I thought about selling 31 also... I've heard it's very simple so you could definitely do it! As for notepads.. welcome to the notepad hoarder club ;) thanks for coming by!

I have that 31 bag too! I love it! I think I'd like a Cricut too - it seems like you can do so much with it. :)
ReplyDeleteMarvelous Multiagers!
31 is super popular! :) and I absolutely love my Cricut. There's a ton, a ton, a TON, of things that you can do with it... you've just gotta figure it out and then let your creative juices flowing! :)
