Dollar Store Deals

Last week I made my annual trip with my co-worker to the Dollar Tree and the .99 cent store.  We always find great things and come up with fabulous teaching ideas while we are shopping. Here is what we found at...

Dollar Tree

Foam Wands

Perfect for Pointers and Reading the Room

Googly Eyes

Best Deal Ever.  I buy a few packs and sort them by sizes into ziplock bags.

Great sorting activity for Kindergarteners too.

Post-It note Puzzle Pieces

hThis is where my friend and I started brainstorming

Story Retelling (Who, What, When, Where)

Pre-fix & Suffix (she teachers 3rd grade)

 GIant Flyswatters

Read the Room

Swat the Word

.99 Cent Store

Colored Clothespins (I bought 3 packs)

Hanging up work on clotheslines

Games that need clothespins 

Attach pictures to the end for attendance, clip charts and such

Hang a ribbon on bulletin boards and attach artwork to the ribbon with clothespins.

Great for fine moter 

I also bought more sponges and little containers to make each kid their own glue tub.
