Here are some things I could use to help me improve my instruction and the students learning.
In some cases I am looking for the specific item, in others, any similar item will be fine. In that case, you don't have to get the items from the links. If you find it locally or even have something at your house that you don't need any more, that will be fine.
If you have a better idea regarding the item or a better source, please let me know.
If you are not sure how to meet a particular need, pease contact me.
I would be happy to purchase any item if you would just like to fund it. I would give you the receipt.
The list is not in any particular order.
