okay as a teacher I am now drooling. I should preface this by saying I teach at a very affluent school, but we have a list of materials we ask each student to get for the year which they recieve when they register in the summer. the team (math, science, social studies and English) make these lists and are very specific about what the kids will need for the year. We try not to add anything to these and they are pretty basic, paper, pencils, dry erase markers, folders for all classes, a binder for English, red pens, and a box of tissues for the science classroom, we do include a statement that some non-core classes may vary but all students need folders, pencils and paper for all classes. All the school provides us with from their budget are staples, 4 dry erase markers per year, paper for copies, butcher block paper for our boards. All other expenses teachers have come from their own pockets or money that the team has set aside. All 4 core teachers get about 400$ a year to spend total.
The only wish lists that we have the option of are the ones we fill out for the PTO/ Renesance during book fair week and that is only for the English teachers.
