100+ Classroom Supplies at the Dollar Tree

I admit it: I used to be a Dollar Tree skeptic. I couldn’t imagine that a store filled with things costing just one buck could possibly have anything worthwhile.

Boy was I wrong. The Dollar Tree is packed with awesome classroom supplies – scissors, flashcards, posters, dice… It even has a teacher supply aisle. No joke. Here are 100+ of my favorite classroom supplies at the Dollar Tree. {And be sure to check out the links to activities where I put them to good use.}
