*Material objects won't make humans better teachers, but hey! some items just make our lives easier. These are my recommendations (in no particular order) for MUST have classroom items for novice OR veteran teachers. CORDLESS Hot Glue Gun

Paper, paper, paper
SmartFab Bulletin Board FabricFind a way to merge that idea with something a little more realistic. I'm proud to say my exact same bulletin board and boards have been up for three years! I keep the fabric a solid black and don't change the boards, but I can put seasonal messages or work on top without the hassle of starting over. I like solid black best because it goes with everything. I use solid white text and bright colored cardstock to make it pop and be more youthful for elementary school. This SmartFab comes in several colors and prints but sells out every August, so order enough in advance. It isn't see through, doesn't fade or show holes, and still looks like new in year three!

PensOk, I lied. You need 9 things...I without fail get an upper respiratory infection sometime in the late fall every single year. My coworkers and I do a school time happy hour at lunch everyday taking one of these. The taste is surprisingly good (I like pink lemonade best) and it is a little boost to your immune system. May be the best kept school trick ever. You are welcome. Follow me on Teachers Pay Teachers
