Christmas Came Early

A local retired teacher opened up a place where businesses and people could donate anything and everything that teachers can use in their classroom.  Once a month, teachers in our county can come and get whatever they want for FREE!!  They also let student teachers in the county come and shop!  Fox 4 did a segment on Teacher's Warehouse this past week.  You can check out the segment here.  What a great resource for teachers when budgets are being cut and teachers are having to reach into their pocketbooks even more than ever.

Here are some pictures of what I scored yesterday!  I was like a little kid in a candy shop.  And then it was Christmas when I got home and discovered stuff that my teacher threw in my boxes for me!  When people found out that I was student teaching, they were throwing stuff at me and telling me, "You have to have this, you will love it!"

I probably came home with over $600 of goodies.  You cannot see all the wall decor and bulletin board goodies that I got!
