I'm doing this whole farm life thing on top of homeschooling with just what I can scrape together and I'm trying my best. I don't wanna take away from any teachers who need for their classrooms. I will gladly offer some lesson plans on cultural appreciation, various subjects as I finish them if I can get some help just getting some supplies. As far as Lego guys go, I'm just a 50's style goth trash hippie barbie trying to help the kiddos in my area appreciate nature and life around the globe.

High School Special Ed Math
https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/25RURI1LZM78S?ref_=wl_share

Special education grades K-6
I work primarily with students who have challenging behavior and students with autism. My amazing kids are brilliant, but struggle in a typical classroom environment. I'm trying to create a classroom that will be a "calm down" space for any students who are overwhelmed or frustrated and need a place where their sensory needs can be met.

https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/JGA7MFHU2DFP?ref_=wl_share

TK-6th; I work with students in special education- my list is all about building a sensory room for them.

Hi! I teach Grade 2 in a province where Dougie Ford has been calling the shots for far too long, and as a result I spend a lot of my own money on my underfunded classroom. Unfortunately that’s not a bottomless well, and next year I am hoping to upgrade my calming corner with more sensory fidgets, and replace the cracked bins I bought at dollarama several years ago with something more stackable and durable. I’m a relatively new teacher, but I have lots of experience with neurodiverse students and a reputation for being able to handle whatever my students throw at me (up to and including chairs and death threats, some years) so my classroom is always busy, but I do my best to help everyone feel safe, seen, and loved. If you can help out, I know my kids would really appreciate it!

Kindergarten - Special Education
I’m a career switcher and recently started teaching special education. Switching professions (and taking a huge pay cut) in my 50s, was hard, but my students are so worth it!!! My students are starting school and require support to succeed in a general education classroom. If you or your partner/child/friend have a fidget or tool that helps/helped, please let me know. I’m always looking for new ideas (or those that have worked for others). On behalf of my little kiddos, thank you for looking at my list!

(I had to change their write up a bit because I didn't feel comfortable posting their actual school in the post.) Know that SirMisterDudeBroPhD works at a school that holds powerful historic and cultural significance to the community it serves. It was one of the first schools to offer free public education to Black students. In their work they strive to honour that legacy and center student experience and student creative voices in all curriculum decisions.

6th grade math

I'm a math-loving, coffee-fueled plant mom who tells way too many dad jokes. I am on a mission to make every student believe they can do math—even if it means bribing them with bad puns and positivity.

Thanks April for gifting a few things! I'm not sure if you have a list but I paid it forward to an elementary school classroom! :)

GrowinWildontheFunnyFarm

#6 since I'm a doof and missed it, I'm homeschooling my 2nd grader, as well as providing foraging, animal care, and gardening classes for ages 5 to 16 on my family farm.

abbeyrosemama

Commenting for visibility. (Does that help?) great idea.

CreatureFromtheBlackLegume

2020Survivor

Thanks to all teachers for what you do! This is amazing and I’m so happy to be a part of supporting this community! Still seeing a few of these are missing addresses for the wishlist. @statueoflibertyeyes it looks like the address isn’t working on your wishlist.

statueoflibertyeyes

Thank you @2020Survivor it looks like it's having issues with 3rd-party sellers. No worries and I appreciate the thought!

Thank you to the person who gifted me last night. Idk what your username to thank you personally, but thank you!!!!

If you haven't been gifted yet, let me know and I'll see what I can do!

Hotsauceman

Thank you for doing this. You are amazing!!!!!!!

nobodyy2

Thank you to the person who bought some stuff of my list!! (Amazon doesn't seem to let me send a thank you)

Yayyyy!!

Thanks for this!! You are all amazing!!

Also, it's not super clear in my info, but I teach middle school choir in a district that LOVES to parade their musicians in front of the community, but cuts FTEs and funds at the first sign of $$ problems. Any help is so very appreciated!

I really appreciate having my list shared. Money is more than tight, but I don't want my students to go without either.

WafflesOfMassDeliciousness

You have quite a few packages arriving July 11, 12, and 14. Cleared out most of your list.

.... No way. Oh my gosh, thank you so much!!! This is the best birthday present ever :)

Saxytimes

Damn I wish I counted 😭 I teach music lessons

robingal1

I hate that we have to do this. But I'm happy to be part of a generous community

rhixhikaru

Thank you so much! I need a lot of help with my classroom. This is my second year teaching 6th grade. Moved down from high school. I need a lot more materials than I did with high school for my classroom management. Also teaching at a Title 1 school with a lot of SPED and ESL kiddos.

WOW! I taught in a Title 1 school for years. I commend you it gets easier to swear!!!

Yeah. I have been teaching at Title 1 schools for 9 years now. I feel like I am really needed at these schools.

I checked a bunch of the US lists

Thank you for tagging them!!

notitnoti

Thank you! I've never done one of these! I'll go try to fix it now!

ravensourcious

Fixed! Thank you for the heads up!

NoTNoShade

Thanks, just fixed it!

idrinkcheapbeer

Is it bad that I kind of reject crowd funding as a source of education resources. I get the theme, "no one else is going to help us" But its more of an indictment of what the reality is. I don't mean to downplay this at all. My brain goes to "why is this necessary??

loma45

Issues existing at the systemic level shouldn't stop us from helping each other at the individual level.

Another example: poverty should be dealt with by our governments, but in the meantime we should still be donating to food banks if able.

I understand completely and agree. Still, it just doesnt sit well with me. Im not trying to say that Im right, Im just trying to express how i feel.

RunawaySpoons

I get this. It's so wrong that this is even needed. As a Brit I get the same feeling when I hear about tipping culture over there, like I get that it is the way it is but it feels wrong to go along with it (because it feels like tacit endorsement), BUT the only other option isn't acceptable either, because not going along with it isn't going to change anything and the workers simply won't get paid survival wages.

Boxingjedi

+1 signal boost

cloverleafbane

Thank you each and every person that is able to help out my kids! You don’t know how important you are.

Math classes are the last ones to get supplies and materials and first in line when it’s time for cuts. It’s kind of silly that I’m asking strangers on the internet for help buying dice, stickers, and white boards for my students, but I’ll do it all day, every day if it helps them be successful!

ambibot

I didn't think to write much as I still have the strangers on the Internet shouldn't get your info mentality. This will be my second year and I switched careers in my early 40s. It's been a wild experience but I love getting to work with kids. I get to teach science! I mean how cool is that? Thank you for doing this!

You’ll be getting packages July 11-14. Enjoy the Geiger Counter, I bet that’ll be cool in class.

Thank you! I totally opened the Geiger counter and ran it around my house. It's too cool.

rustyshackelford1

Thanks so much for taking the time to share my list! It really means a lot.

Cleared your list. Delivery on July 14th.

.... People like you exist!!!! I thought it was only in the movies

Wowwwww!!! I can’t believe this! I was so surprised when I opened the box! Thanks so much. I’ve never shared my list publicly before. The students will be so happy. Thank you thank you!

Enjoy!

I didn't include a bio either! I've been teaching culinary arts & restaurant management for the last 8 years! We compete in many competitions and just recently won first place at NPSI (National ProStart Invitational) in management! I love my job and my students and wouldn't trade it for anything. ProStart is pretty much my life during the school year.

I am adding a few dishes my students made in class on my profile.

grandopening

I can vouch for u/cookingclassroom. I have been her volunteer mentor for both her culinary arts and restaurant management teams since she started competing in 2019.
She has lead both teams to minor and major awards since the beginning.
Notably, both teams won the state competition in 2021 & 22. The Restaurant Management team has won state every year since 2021. And achieved a National win this last May.
Besides competition, u/cookingclassroom focuses on teaching practical culinary ->

skills and food safety. Her method of reinforcing ServSafe practices is a benchmark to be envied - and I have taught the same coursework.
To say I respect her is an understatement.
As a team, we have excelled because she wades through the competition minutiae, and I bring decades of industry experience.
I shared the link with her in the hopes that the personal financial burden could be lessened.

Aristophila

Ahhh my mini figure is adorable! I didn’t realize the post went up until I received magical items at my door today to stock our sensory room. ❤️❤️ I’m so thankful for the help. You all are amazing. Our students will be so excited to get cozy in their new space. https://media4.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTY1YjkxZmJlNnBtdzMybHhxdXhiOTU0a2xyNmprbHdwcjR0YXI1Y3M2OG5xZWt4ZiZlcD12MV9naWZzX3NlYXJjaCZjdD1n/uWlpPGquhGZNFzY90z/giphy.mp4

I'm so happy for you!!

WOOOOHOOOOO!!! CAN I SEE??

YES!!! Thank you for doing this. I'm so grateful.

YAYYYY!!

Also- thank you @holycow360! You completely surprised me today.

If there are bad links there's not much I can do about that. I did put the missing links in now;

Thank you!
https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/Q1CSKQGY8YNF?ref_=wl_share

Also thank you for checking!

Just want them to get the help they need. Really sucks that our system is so bad that teachers have to do these types of things. Have rising 2nd and 8th graders and even though my county is consistently in the top "highest income" list (and my state has the most highest earning counties of a single state), our teachers are reduced to these types of requests too. I expect it to just get worse with all the DoEd shenanigans going on...

SirMisterDudeBroPhD

Thank you! Thank you also for the edit I hadn't considered privacy/safety🙂 good lookin or!

Yeah it takes a bit to figure out.

allumette24

Thank you so much for organizing this list! I spend so much energy scraping, scrounging, begging, and borrowing resources every year that it’s really nice to feel like there are people out there who actually want to help.

humbedooh

Your items (yes, all of them, I think?!) are on their way in the next five days or so, first shipment arriving today. With compassion and joy from a wannabe-Manitoban.

I just saw your comment here. Merci mille fois!!! Your incredible generosity is going to make such a difference to my kids 🩷🩷

I mostly only lurk on imgur so I don’t really know how the messaging works. I hope this reaches you! It honestly makes me tear up when I think about the difference your random act of kindness will make to my class next year. I promise we will pay it forward!

Dear kind stranger, things for my classroom keep arriving and I’ve had to designate a corner of the kitchen for boxes to take to school in August. My own kids have started referring to you as the Imgur Santa. I have enough sensory fidgets to make bins for several colleagues as well as myself. I don’t have enough words or the right words to tell you how much I appreciate your incredible kindness to a bunch of strangers’ kids. Sending you all the love 🩷🩵💜🤍💚❤️💙💜💛🧡

It's all about paying it forward for me. Glad to hear it's making a difference :)

I think some of these wishlists need addresses - when buying for Bobelly there was no option to select a delivery address other than my own. There should be a "wishlist address" option if setup correctly. Also please be careful of PII - some of these wishlists have real names attached to them on the amazon side

Hey, thanks. I just changed the settings on my wishlist. Didn't know that it wasn't set up. I appreciate the heads up.

I saw that and an imgurian told me too. I fixed mine.

@bobelly

playingwithknives

@daliamonra

Please add your address to your wishlist!

daliamonra

How do I do that?

You open the list in Amazon, then click the drop-down menu (three little dots) and select “manage list”. You should have the option to add an address there.

Thank you. It has been done.

Yay!

moscomule

I am now feeling very foolish for not including a bio of some kind, so here:
I teach in Aurora, Colorado. Our school has a diverse community that features a lot of students from Ethiopia and Eritrea, though we have around 38 languages represented in the school. Technology looks like a mix of coding, robotics, graphic design, and typing, and the students are enthusiastic to learn all of these (minus typing, but we still need it!). Thanks to all, we teachers appreciate it!

CitrusyGarlic

I just tried to order a few things on your list but there's no delivery address, all I see is my own address. Isn't there supposed to be a gift address it can be sent to?

Hackmastergeneral

Right? Me too!

Sorry, I have updated the link but not on this post. It is here:

https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1PA1WR1GG5YUQ?ref_=wl_share

My students and I appreciate it very much. Your generosity is amazing ❤️

motokeith

When I saw that you are in Aurora I couldn't resist making a purchase. I was in the Air Force and did my science heavy technical training at Lowry AFB. I have been a self employed software engineer for 25 years now, so I have an appreciation for the work you are doing. Best wishes.

That’s so kind, thank you! Thank you for your service, also. I actually live in the Lowry area, lovely part of the world :) my students and I appreciate your generosity and kindness

You’re the best!

No foolish feelings necessary. I feel foolish cause there's only 16 upvotes. I forgot I'm an hour ahead of the time I would usually try to catch people at the end of the work day. Prime Day is tomorrow anyway so I will try to do a harder launch then.

I appreciate that you put this together at all!

Is Amazon supposed to provide a delivery address? I just tried to order a few things for moscomule but my only shipping options are to ship it to myself.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention! I added an address, sorry for the confusion!

@moscomule

Thank you for the heads-up! I added an address.

I’ll need thenew link to add it in.

I think some people haven’t figured out how to set the address on their wishlists. Please message moscomule to fix it so he can send me a new linkz

Ya I tried him before I tried you but no response yet. Let us love you @moscomule!

I think it should be updated now! Please love me! I’m not sure a new link is necessary, but I can share one:

I had to go into my list and set the delivery address. The delivery address is not automatic which I didn't realize so I'm glad I checked.

This was super helpful, thank you!
