I, too, have a Cricut Expression and love it! It’s been the single most important tool that I’ve ever purchased as a teacher making my life much easier. I encourage every teacher to consider purchasing one. A teacher friend of mine and I purchase cartridges and share - so, together we have an awesome library!
Great shared tips. It is always nice to ready information like this before going out for school supplies shopping. We learn new ideas and trend and that way we are sure that our kids are not out dated with what is in and good.
In response to Aimee’s dry erase boards, I use Donna Whyte’s Writing folder which has a back cover that you can use as a dry erase board. I have had good success with these. Students use old socks for an eraser but we have also used paper towel or kleenix.
We have the folders counted into our book fees so every child is insured to have a writing folder. The folders are approx. $2.50 each and can be purchased through Crystal Springs.
