Ruled, self-stick chart paper (expensive!), laminating sleeves for my self-purchased small laminator, a cell phone storage box because my calculator holder is getting beaten up, a teacher agenda/planner that I like, and teacher pens that are higher quality than the cheap ones that dry out too quickly

like

We have a few teachers in my dept. who bought these boxes (grades 9-12), and they stand at the door greeting kids as they dock their phones on the way into class. Then they take them to a secure area near their teacher desk until the last 2-3 minutes of class. Some of us use calculator holders, but they start ripping over time. Not one phone was lost or stolen.
It would be better to have a school-wide policy, but we had to do this to manage our classes because kids were using Discord, Insta, and trying to stream videos.

I put some books on, some educational or tactile toys, laminating sheets, construction paper, prizes for the prize box, extra pencils and erasers, extra large ziplock bags, white paper bags (I use them for parent gifts throughout the year)…the list goes on lol
