As a new teacher I am seeking to stock my classroom as much as possible with unwanted but educationally usable items that are collecting dust in peoples houses. Office supplies, games, maps, binders, file folders, magazines that I won't get fired for if I have in my classroom 
you name it, if you are wondering if I would be interested in something just ask. If you are in the greater Puget Sound area and you happen to have amassed or know someone who has amassed some of this and is just eventually going to chuck it, we can put it to good use in the classroom. Small toys / trinkets also are great because they can be a major incentive / prize for students if we do any competitions in class.
Current class is 6th grade in elementary. Next year 6th grade is being moved into the middle school and I am hoping to teach 5th grade and desire to career in 5th grade.
I have also created a Donor's Choose project that I am seeking funding for to create a well stocked game cupboard so all these kids can 'unplug.'
If you feel so inclined to Donate, don't forget to use the code "RIPPLE" and it will match donations up to $50. Donations are tax deductible because Donors Choose is a 501c3 Non-Profit organization. Plus you will get a really sweet thank you card signed by all my students and me!

If you want to meet a very rare type of teacher (at least in this area) in the future, I hang out at Renton Fish and Game Club from time to time and we could always meet up there, enjoy shooting, and I could accept any of the above items you may wish to donate. I was there last Saturday participating in the 'Black Rifle' competition.
Thank you.
