Ultimately, I am trying to create different learning centers in my classroom. One of those centers will be a listening center where I can send my students to, so they can watch and listen to a video or audio file, so they can complete an activity. This is where the headsets come in. My students do not have AirPods or headsets, so I would like to have a class set for them. The subjects I teach are Civics and U.S History, so incorporating the Times' digital magazines will help my students stay informed with current events throughout the school year. The sticky notes I like to use for group projects or as exit slips at the end of a lesson. I don't have enough student folders to keep graded work in, so I need more to cover all of my 156 students. I shop at Teachers Pay Teachers a lot for various resources, so a $100 gift card will be put to good use there. Paper is always essential to give each student their own class copy of any assignment, so they can write on it. Copy paper is not provided by the school, so any help with replenishing my classroom supply helps.
