We know your classroom is the heartbeat of your world, so why not jazz it up with some Amazon treasures that will make your teaching journey a breeze? From cozy carpets to quirky rewards, I’ve got you covered with my list of 20 Amazon classroom must haves. These are all classroom and student tested in the past three years!

Classroom Ease Must Haves

Carpet & Grips: Give your little learners a comfy space to gather for storytime with a plush classroom carpet. I debated whether I should include this since it’s so pricey!  But if you wait for Prime Days, the price for the size is the best I’ve found.  Add grips to keep it in place – no slipping and sliding here! I’ve tried many rug grips over the years, and these keep the carpet in place and don’t damage the floors when you remove them!

Low Chair: Who said teachers can’t get in on the cozy seating action? A low chair adds a touch of comfort to your teacher command center. Since you are lower down, you are more on the student’s level, making read-aloud and carpet time much better!

Clicker: Be the maestro of your classroom with a handy clicker. No need to race to the computer – click away to control your presentations and keep the class engaged.

Clock: Time flies when you’re having fun! Keep your schedule on track with a stylish classroom clock that keeps you from constantly being asked, “What time is it?”.

Amazon Classroom Must Have Supplies

Amazon Classroom Must Haves Supplies

  • Tack it Glue: Tack it glue is a game-changer for anything you need to move. I use it on our Table Gameboard.
  • Business Card Magnets: These are perfect to put on the back of items you hang on your whiteboard. The best part is the magnets don’t curl, making them stick nicely to your board.  One pack has lasted me over 5 years!
  • Spring Scissors: Cutting just got a whole lot more exciting! Spring scissors add a bounce to your snipping, keeping your hand from hurting when cutting out everything!
  • Velcro Dots: Versatile and handy velcro dots are the unsung heroes of classroom organization. Use them for everything from hanging art to securing flashcards.
  • Mavalus Tape: Say hello to tape that won’t let you down. Mauvalus tape is easy to peel, stick, and reposition – perfect for the ever-changing classroom landscape. And the best part is that it adheres to the cinderblock!!
  • Crayola Dry Erase: Get your doodle on with Crayola dry-erase markers. These are the most vibrant markers I’ve used, and they erase well!

 

Amazon Classroom Must Haves for Routines

Amazon favorites zipper pouches

  • Zipper Pouches: Keep your sanity intact with zipper pouches for organizing supplies. No more digging through a sea of crayons and markers! They hold up to student torture all year.
  • Doorbell: Make an entrance with a classroom doorbell! It’s a fun way to signal transitions and grab students’ attention.
  • Curtain for Door: Sometimes, you need a little privacy, but mostly it’s for safety. The curtain is perfect for anyone with a different-sized window in their classroom door.

Student Rewards & Gifts

Amazon Must Have student rewards

  • Animal Top Erasers: Make erasing mistakes a wild adventure with animal top erasers. The cuteness factor will make your students eager to correct their work.
  • Bouncy Balls: Release some energy with bouncy balls as a reward. They’re a simple yet effective way to keep your class motivated.
  • Stickers: Everyone is water bottle obsessed, and water bottle stickers are where it’s at. A little bit of praise goes a long way!
  • Earbuds: Create a quiet corner for focused learning with earbuds. Perfect for those times when individualized audio is the key to success or your students need a replacement.

 

There you have it, dear teachers – 20 Amazon classroom must-haves to elevate your teaching game. From cozy carpets to whimsical rewards, these items will make your classroom the talk of the school. Check out my favorite Amazon Teacher items! Happy teaching! 🍎✨

Shake the awkward out with partner challenges or quick mixers to rebuild your classroom community.
