Teacher Back to School Survival Kit for women


This year before school starts I am going to put together a "Back to Schoo Survival Kit".

Every year I always make do with what is in the bottom of my purse when I need something like gum, deodorant, change, etc... NO MORE, I SAY!

First I need to choose a bag. I am currently riding the crazy and I am into flamingos so I found these four bags on Amazon. Which one would you guys choose?


After choosing my bag I need to decide what items need to be in said bag. 

So far I have been thinking of these items:

Deodorant 
My classroom is always like the surface of the sun at the start of the school year so this is a MUST!
Tissues 
I use paper pots in my classroom that houses toilet paper for tissues. I am not ashamed to admit that I would like to keep a supply of the "Good stuff" in my survival bag.

Band Aids 
The amount of paper cuts that I get is just ridiculous so I definitely need some fun band aids!

Change
I always need change for an emergency soda or chocolate and I am always having to search the bottom of my purse. This year I am going to keep a roll of quarters in an M&M container (Perfect size) for just such emergencies. 

Chapstick
I am always losing chapstick...I think everyone does! So I am going to keep a stick in my survival kit!
Hair Ties and Bobby Pins
Another thing that I ALWAYS lose. I must have owned a million of these over my lifetime but at any given time I can't find a single one!


Gum/Mints
Need I explain?

 Pain reliever
This is a necessity in ANY teacher's life!
Travel Lint roller
Animal hair, chalk, children all seem to gravitate towards my clothes like nobody's business!


Mini Brush
To go with those thousands of hair bands I have lost over the years. 

 Stomach relief
Better safe than sorry!


Tampons
The amount of times I have been surprised by this at work is embarrassing. 
Lotion
Oh how I crave this whenever I don't have it!

Stain Remover
Oh how I crave this whenever I don't have it!

Lego Rewards for VIPKid or GoGoKid

So I was looking at the facebook groups today and I saw a lady who's daughter made this for the GogoKid lesson "Apple and Banana" and I thought it was just great! :  Every slide (or every time a student does a good job) you could add a few more pieces to creation and have them guess what it is going to be!  I started looking up other simple creations that my students always talk about and compiled a short list below! (Each picture is clickable for instructions on how to make them) I am sure that if you have children you already have these Legos rolling around in your house somewhere causing havoc on your feet. However, if you are like me and don't have kids yet, you might need a little bit of a starter kit! Click the images below to see them on Amazon.

Backgrounds for VIPKid and GoGoKid

Okay, so right now this is what my background for my VIPKid and GoGoKid classroom looks like: It's cute and it's colorful, but it is just kind of blah.  You guys! I just discovered the coolest thing! Photo backdrops! You can transform your classroom into almost anywhere in the world within seconds and for under $10! Look at all the options! (Click on the pictures to see on Amazon) Those are just some of the backdrops I found within a quick search. Which one do you think I should get for my wall? I have also been doing some research on lighting and I have heard that this is a pretty good setup. Anyone have any other opinions?
