[quote=Anonymous]I spent 3k my first year teaching early elementary and then about 1k subsequent years. I bought: -An entire extensive classroom library (compiled over years from the cheapest sources I could find) -Seat sacks -Flexible seating -Rugs -At one school I taught I had to buy printer paper regularly, pencils, erasers, scissors, other basic supplies -Math manipulatives -Pocket charts -Pocket chart stands -Fidgets/materials for a calm-down corner -So many bins and storage units -Some small furniture (bookshelves, small tables, bench etc) -Specialized materials for instruction (ie handwriting paper with raised lines for kids who needed it) -Various extras to make learning more fun - ie stamping markers, endless props for dramatic play, scientist lab coats and goggles, paint, skin-colored crayons etc -Snacks at times for my kids I could go on, but you get the gist.
