How the heck, are ya?! :)

Helpful Stuff

What teacher has everything they need? I sure don’t!

Enter Amazon wish lists!

Imagine having a wish list packed with all the tools, books, and resources that could take your teaching space from ordinary to extraordinary! 

It's like creating a magical portal where parents and supporters can sprinkle some extra love and creativity into your classroom!

Just think of the excitement these added resources could bring to your teaching game. 

So, why not give it a shot? 

Check out this amazing article on how to create a teacher wish list on Amazon!

Pro tip: your list’s shipping address may be visible to the buyers (especially if you allow purchasing from Amazon’s third-party sellers) so I recommend using your school address to receive gifts from your list! :) 

Try these out and let us know how it goes! Don’t forget to tag us in your posts on Instagram as @shining_scholar_education and Facebook as Shining Scholar Education!

Recommendations

The following links are Amazon affiliate links, but don’t worry, it does not affect your price at all. 🙂

I don’t know if any of you don’t have access to your classroom during your conference period, but I rarely do.

Some teachers float and sometimes I have kiddos doing extra work or testing in my room so I don’t have privacy when I need to make phone calls or a Telehealth appointment with a doctor.

That’s why these car shades have been a total GAME-CHANGER!

Not only do they give you privacy to make phone calls in your car but you can also use them for a quick wardrobe change when in a pinch!

Check out how they looked in my car! (Excuse the mess, lol) 
Get them on Amazon here! ​

To help all of you amazing teachers build meaningful relationships with your kiddos from the first day of school, here is our own FREE student interest questionnaire that I personally use to foster better relationships with all of my students!

​Recommendations

These helpful Google Chrome extensions save webpages as pdfs PDF Mage & Webpage to PDF Converter!

These are the two best ones that I found because they actually take screenshots/pictures of whatever is displayed on your screen—even things that are behind a password— are still saved as a PDF!

Hope it helps and remember that sharing is caring so please recommend these extensions to anyone that could benefit from them!
