Everyone MUST go to Target and look for these DOLLAR ITEMS!!! I've always purchased a few things here and there for my classroom from Target's dollar section but now they have TEACHING MATERIALS! For someone who is moving from 4th grade to 1st, this was a God-send! I purchased the following items:
*colorful pocket charts (small size) for vocabulary words
*rainbow star stickers for my progress charts
*a cute star pointer
*colorful star and rainbow borders
*adorable crayon erasers which I will use as a first day gift
*bookmarks to go along with the erasers on the first day
*great reader book awards
*"Great Work" and "Super Star" large stickers
*desk name plates with alphabet and numbers
*a "Welcome" banner
*"Today is..., Yesterday was..., Tomorrow will be..." bulletin board set
*new monthly headers for my calendar
*2 Dr. Seuss notepads (Cat in the Hat and Green Eggs and Ham) for Dr. Seuss's birthday
*colorful congratulations awards
*cute tab dividers
I am soooo happy! I know the Dollar Tree also has similar supplies but these were so darn cute AND they were at my favorite place...Target!
I have to share my last favorite purchase there which I may use either at home or at school. It is modeled by my son (who thought I was funny sharing this with him) here:
