My school has provided a lot of good technology stuff, but not basics like crayons. Does that seem a little crazy?Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11142817054375318711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6228656108960147265.post-722350369371647642012-04-26T20:12:05.916-04:002012-04-26T20:12:05.916-04:00I buy supplies on the impulse all the time.

Now though, I try to restrain and really push my budget to the limit. But does that means I am perfect now? NO. :)J.hamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09462557362994500244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6228656108960147265.post-55603130144932408892012-04-26T11:04:54.150-04:002012-04-26T11:04:54.150-04:00Are you kidding?

Its just that I come up with projects that I don't have enough supplies for and i have to have it now! I do use templates for shapes sometimes, but I seriously discourage tracing...and I am an expert at figuring out who is tracing!Mrs. Erbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01874190150117333395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6228656108960147265.post-22918229222651348472012-04-25T23:19:27.025-04:002012-04-25T23:19:27.025-04:00I can't stay away from Amazon!

It's more like I spend $5 here, $10 there - a bag of playground sand, some boxes of metallic markers, paper plates, plastic eggs, stuff at Lowe's to build my Chihuly tower, etc.<br /><br />As for tracing, I actually have been using some tracers this week - dragonfly wings and bodies for my first grade and flower petals for kinders. I'll post photos soon, but they were means to an end, and I don't feel guilty.Phylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00482775924810462890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6228656108960147265.post-28863057014327986142012-04-25T21:31:01.852-04:002012-04-25T21:31:01.852-04:00You hit the nail on the head when you said, I see ...You hit the nail on the head when you said, I see it and want it and I buy it cuz I need it right NOW! If I ever totaled up how much of my money that I spend on supplies I would probably be ill. I always tell myself that it's okay because I don't have a hubby or kids so I can spend it on my students. Recently, within the past year, our district mandated $3.00 per elementary student for art supplies. That's better than before, but still not enough. One of my students won $750.00 for our school to buy art supplies with- a poster contest win. Yay! The murals are great!Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07481951771573117224noreply@blogger.com
