[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the “less is more” posters. A lot of the things you think you need just cause visual clutter. Don’t spend any money on decorating. The kids’ work + anchor charts that you create to go with lessons should be what is on your walls. Check with the school’s office. They likely have a room with stuff like bulletin board paper, chart paper, etc. if you put an Amazon list together with things like prize box items, books, book bins, etc. and post it on social media and next door, you may be surprised at the response (I had a huge wishlist granted very quickly thanks to one of my connections retweeting it). Ask on Nextdoor and your neighborhood list serve for donations—Lego, bookshelves, gently used children’s books, etc. I’ve gotten a lot of my indoor recess games and bookshelves from neighborhood donations. I just gave away hundreds of books and tons of supplies due to switching from elementary to middle school. [/quote]
