Back-to-School Teacher Wish List

Summer is flying by and I know teacher wish list making is in full force!

With Amazon Prime Day right around the corner (July 8-11), it’s the perfect time to gather and share wish lists from my Title 1 or first-year teacher readers who could use some help getting their classrooms ready.

I would love to focus specifically on the classroom wish list for teachers who don’t receive enough assistance from their district or PTA throughout the year. I know the needs these teachers are facing can be overwhelming and heartbreaking with items ranging from basic needs like underwear and laundry detergent to snacks, school supplies, holiday party items and so much more.

I am so proud and appreciative of this incredibly generous community and I know that together we can help make a huge impact this year for our teachers (students and parents)!

Now let’s help clear these wish list items for these incredible educators!

How do I create an Amazon teacher wish list?

If you need help creating your wish list in Amazon, here is a website with instructions for How to Set Up and Share an Amazon Classroom Wish List.

Do I have to include a mailing address in my Amazon teacher wish list?

Yes! Amazon will keep your address hidden for privacy, but it is required for us to get your items to you!

My teacher wish list isn’t ready yet. Can I still participate?

Please don’t leave a comment until your wish list is already created so it makes it easier for readers to donate. However, I will be sharing this post throughout the rest of summer to help teachers clear their list! So if your list isn’t ready yet, just post it back here when it is!

Hi! I teach Spanish in Black Mountain, North Carolina. My school was directly hit by Hurricane Helene on September 27th, 2024. We were out of school for 26 school days. Many of my students lost their entire homes and were forced to live in FEMA trailers, move to other parts of the state or live with family. Our school was also damaged by the storm due to flooding. I will have larger classes this coming year due to losing funding as well. Clearing even some of my list will make a difference. My school is a Title 1 school. I love my students and have no plans to ever leave the area. https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/dl/invite/5WQFPiyvPMJATVqFilc98_5YHO0JDUi2fGqyRD-mjP3HqnIjb-zc2-H-noftsU8D735zrB5lL1CBlIjJvg23RwS7JfydcENiLRFB_08?ref_=wl_share Thank you for considering helping us out.

Hello, my name is Gizelle Muhawi and I have been teaching in Vista unified school district in California for 13 years now. I have spent the last 13 years teaching fifth grade at our dual immersion school. Our students spend 50% of their day learning in Spanish and 50% of their day learning in English. Our school is a title one school offering the best possible environment for all of our students. Please help me in sprucing up my classroom to accommodate the needs of my upper elementary students. They deserve the best! https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/26ZDDKGR39N1T?ref_=wl_share

My name is Michelle Uhrig. I teach 2nd grade at Harrison Hill Elementary. I will be entering year 12 of teaching and some items in my classroom could use a refresh. I teach at a Title 1 school and most of my students are not able to afford supplies for the school year. Any donation is appreciated!
