Teacher Survival Kit for Men

I just wrote a teacher survival kit post that was geared towards women and got asked what I would put in a kit for men. So here you go!

First, you need to choose a bag!

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

I have polled my male teacher friends and here is what I have found out:

Tissues

Tissues, the good kind, are in high demand.

Band Aids

The amount of paper cuts that teachers get is just ridiculous so you should definitely put in some fun band aids!

Change

Who doesn't need change for an emergency soda or snack?

Chapstick

I am always losing chapstick...I think everyone does! So I am going to keep a stick in my survival kit!

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!

Stomach relief

Better safe than sorry!

Stain Remover

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

Duck Tape

Duck tape can fix anything!

Beef Jerky

in need of a protein boost?

Dental floss

Self explanatory

Double Headed Screwdriver

Always comes in handy!

WD-40

Fixes what duck tape cannot

Zip Ties

Men are always asking me if I have these

Batteries

and these

Granola Bar

Same premise as the beef jerky

5 hour energy

We all could use this....all the time

Staples Engineering Prints

Last summer I decided that I wanted to re-do my bedroom. I painted the room purple, which i've always wanted to do, but the big thing I wanted was prints for my walls. I did a lot of research and man were prints expensive in the sizes that I wanted! Finally, I learned about Staples Engineering Prints They are super cheap, and actually print really nicely (even though the website claims they are not intended for photos). Take a look at how mine turned out (Don't mind the mess, this was still in the putting back together phase). How I did it: After my prints came in the mail, I went to Lowes and found This . All I did was trace the print on the insulation board, cut it with a regular box cutter, and paint the edges of it with a Paint Sample that accented my walls. The last step was gluing the print to the insulation board. I liked this spray the best because I could reposition the print in case I didn't line it up just so. After I got ...

Music for the Middle School Classroom

One of my most popular posts ever was my Pandora Stations for the Middle School Classroom I thought I would let you guys know about another gem that I found that my students LOVED! Rhett Price on Youtube does violin covers of current popular songs. When my classes were doing independent work I would put his channel on a playlist in the background (just listening, not watching). It was awesome to see the students bopping along and singing to themselves as they worked. ***Tip: Because my kids were so into these songs there was never a peep from anyone. If anyone dared to try to speak the rest of the class would shush them so they could keep listening. Here are a few of my students favorites: Rhett Price Youtube Channel Save Save
