Oh....there are FOR SURE more than 3 "must haves" in my room. Actually, I teach in three different rooms. So I really could have three sets of "must haves." But...I'll stick to my top three :)
Markers have become quite a staple in my groups this year. It started when I didn't have enough pencils sharpened in my reading group. But I really love using them because I can see their mistakes, use them as highlighters, and they are motivating!
My timer! I can't live without it. Just can't! I use it throughout my guided reading group to keep me on track :) Look at this poor thing. It has been dropped, misplaced, lost, and it just keeps on ticking for me!
What are your "must haves?"

Love the timer and the fact that it keeps on ticking! I just bought a new set of markers this year because so many of mine had dried up. They are wonderful!

We both had post-its and markers on out lists! I definitely use my timer often throughout the day. I have a digital one like yours, but I have the kid use the 1 minute sand timers since they are so much quieter.
