Kristin Teaches | Teacher Favorites & Resources

You don't have to spend a fortune to have an organized, functional classroom! These are some of my favorite teacher finds under $25 that I either use myself or recommend to every educator. Affordable, practical, and classroom-approved! 🍎💜

Your teacher desk is your home base, so why not make it functional and cute? 💜 These are the desk essentials I use (or would recommend) to stay organized, productive, and make my workspace a place I actually enjoy working in. Whether you're a first-year teacher or just looking to refresh your desk, these affordable finds help keep everything within reach and your day running a little smoother.

After passing the ILTS 305 on my first attempt, so many future teachers asked what I used to study. These are the exact books, study guides, Quizlets, practice tests, and resources that helped me prepare. I hope this saves you time, money, and stress as you work toward becoming a teacher.

Walking into your first classroom can be overwhelming. These are the classroom supplies, organization tools, technology, and teacher favorites I actually use in my own elementary classroom. I’ve included the items that have made teaching easier and helped keep me organized throughout the school year.
