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 2025-2026 school year. This includes stocking up on school supplies for their students!

Did you know that many teachers pay for the 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 out of their own pockets.

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! 🙌

    Hi everyone. I’m a 4th grade teacher in a low-income Title 1 school in the suburbs of Chicago. We, as a class, would love if you could take a look at our list. Our classroom for 2025 will have 28 students! Any and all help is so appreciated.

  10. Ellie Seyl

    Hi! My name is Ellie and I teach first grade at a Title 1 school on the west side of Chicago. This is my second year teaching, and I absolutely love teaching first grade and creating an environment where my students learn to love learning and feel welcomed.

    I do my best to provide as much as I can for my students because they are truly the best kids in the whole world and deserve the most. Many of them come to school without the supplies they need, so I try to make sure that every child has what it takes to start the year feeling confident and cared for.

    My wish list includes basic classroom supplies—binders, folders, glue sticks, crayons, and pencil cases—that help us stay organized and ready to learn. These essentials may seem small, but they truly add up and make a huge impact on our day-to-day classroom experience.

    Thank you so much for helping us start the year strong! Every bit of support means the world to me and my students.

    This upcoming school year is a big one, I’m officially a first-year teacher! I’ll be teaching 6th grade ELA, and while I’m full of excitement and ideas, I’m also starting completely from scratch. Support my students and help me create a welcoming, organized, and engaging learning environment, I’ve put together an Amazon wishlist with items we’ll use all year long.
