One of the things I created this summer was an online supply and wishlist for the upcoming school year. I know there are a ton of websites out there that do this, but I came across TeacherLists. I have to admit that one of the reasons I decided to try it is that they were giving away classroom supplies to any teacher who created a list.
This is one of the reasons why I mention it now. Anyone who creates a list online now will get two boxes of tissues and a roll of paper towels for their classroom if they put Bounty and Puffs on their list. In addition to that, another current promotion is that you will received a container Wet Ones or Mr Clean magic eraser when you include these items on your list. They are always changing the giveaways depending on their sponsors, so you really check it out.
This is the first year that I created a wishlist for my classroom. I thought that this site would be a good way to ask parents for items without seeming too push.
Do you have supply or wish lists for your classroom? What do you do to ask parents for items?
If the link to Teacher Lists above doesn't work (some schools block shortened links - try this link: http://www.teacherlists.com/teachers/?tt!pID=2162&tt!bD=1064249_1
