What is “Clear the List”? It’s a nationwide movement to support teachers by purchasing items for their school supply lists.

School will be back in session soon (some districts start in just a couple of weeks!) and teachers are already working hard to prepare their classrooms for the new 2024-2025 school year. This includes stocking up on school supplies for their students!

Did you know that many teachers pay for a majority of classroom supplies out of their own pockets? Yes, it’s true! Classroom supplies are not cheap and many school districts and families are struggling. This leaves many teachers to pay for school supplies themselves.

Teachers always go the extra mile for their students, so let’s show them how much we appreciate them by giving back and helping to fulfill their supply lists!

You can help by donating items from teachers’ Amazon shopping lists!

Teachers and educational professionals can head over to Amazon, create a classroom wish list, and then share their lists publicly. Anyone can ‘donate’ items that are on the list, and after donating, donors can even leave a note or message letting the teacher know how much they are appreciated. So awesome!

Even better, if you post your list on social media and tag Amazon with #clearthelist, you may find that your list is cleared BY Amazon! So cool!

Teachers, follow these steps to make your classroom wish list on Amazon:

  • Head over to Amazon and hover over Account & List at the top. Select ‘Create a List’ from the drop-down menu and name your list.
  • Hover over the three dots More menu on the right, and click Manage List to update your shipping address (this is important!) and other preferences like whether you want the list to be private or public. You can also designate whether your list is for an organization and if so, you’ll have the option to provide the website address of the organization.
  • Click ‘Save’ and then you can start adding items to your list!
  • To add items to your wish list, simply browse for products on Amazon and then click ‘Add to List’ under the Buy box on the right-hand side of any item’s product detail page.
  • Only list owners can make changes through Manage List. Both list owners and collaborators will be able to add and remove items.

If you’re a teacher, be sure to share your teacher list in the comments below so that readers can help clear the list! 🙌

Plus, treat yourself to something special with these teacher discounts!

    Hi there! My name is Andrea Soliday and I am starting my 4th year in 4th grade this year. I teach at a fantastic title 1 school in a small town, Midwestern school district. I love where I teach and the challenges that help me grow each day. I can’t thank you all enough for supporting teachers in this way. It means the world to us!

    To my students at Mastery Pickett, I’m known as Hunty, but that name was actually given to me 12 years ago when I was a student teacher at Penn State. Today, I’m proud to be heading into my 4th year as an 8th grade ELA teacher at Mastery Charter’s Pickett Campus in Philadelphia, PA. While teaching at a Title 1 school, where over 75% of students are from low-income households, comes with challenges, I’ve remained a teacher here because of the impact my students have had on me. My middle schoolers make me laugh until I cry (or is it the other way around?), challenge my own thinking, and work harder than I knew was possible. Within those 4 walls, we are learning to change the world through literature, and we would be so appreciative of your help in continuing that work.

    Hello! I am excited to announce that I will be starting my journey as a 6th Grade ELA teacher this year. This is my first year as an educator. I believe that all students deserve the tools they need to succeed in their education. Your contribution to my Amazon Wishlist or classroom library would be greatly appreciated and make a significant difference. Thank you for considering supporting me and my students!

    Please support my one of my projects or my amazon wish list! Any helps and I am so grateful for the support my 1st graders.

    I am embarking on an exciting transition from special education to general education as an inclusion teacher. This journey presents a unique opportunity to create a nurturing and inclusive environment where every student can thrive emotionally and academically.

    Hello! I work at a Title 1 school and have 50 students! I teach math, social studies and science! Our PTA is new, so we don’t have a ton of funding for some basic necessities. I have added some things to my list for recess for our entire grade level. I am looking to create some STEM stations to help promote problem solving and creativity in my students. I would love to help expand my flexible seating options for my students as well! Thank you for contributing to our classroom!
