More Fun Finds... and Library Pics

FINALLY the Target by me got some school stuff! :) I was so excited! I'm sure other people have already posted about all the stuff I got, but I want to tell you about it just in case they didn't- so you can be on the lookout too!

Group shot of all the great stuff I found

Bins I will use for math manipulatives. I'm just going to put counters/bears/cubes/etc in the bins and put small cups with them so they can just scoop some for whatever they need. No more wasted time putting stuff back into baggies! Just scoop and dump back into the bin!


Magnetic hooks for pocket charts. Even if the hooks don't work very well, I couldn't resist 4 colorful magnets for $1!
Math and Alphabet Bingo
(sorry, I forgot to turn the picture and it's too much work to re-upload) Stamps and an inkpad. If the inkpad is any good I am going to go back and get some more. They are a great size for using in centers!

Dr. Seuss erasers for my treasure box
A weekly notepad. (this is probably my favorite thing I found- just because it helps me to stay organized!)

Lined dry erase boards and sentences strips

LOVE these animal family flash cards!
Alphabet and Counting matching puzzles
Found these at Party Warehouse for $2.50. I plan on just using them as another reward/incentive. I will just tell a kiddo who is being a super star that they can wear a pair out to recess. I figured they would think it is cool!

Library set-up

Clothespins glued onto the baskets and my labels (posted about here) rotated out on a monthly basis.


I hope your Target has some great stuff trickling in!

  1. Wow! What great finds. I was so disappointed when I went to my Target. They didn't have much but I did pickup the whiteboard sentence strips. Thought they would be great to use during small groups. Hope to find some goodies soon in my area...

  2. I always find it funny how every Target has different things. I also find it funny how each of us has different favorites. My husband has finally put his foot down and banned me from the dollar spot at Target for a month (which will be right around the time I go back to work). lol I guess 5 separate trips to 3 Targets and enough stuff to supply a small teacher store was the final straw. Looks like you got some great stuff.
