Deals on classroom essentials can lead to hundreds of dollars in savings when you consider that it often falls on teachers to foot the bill for their own school supplies. I learned this firsthand as an assistant teacher in a fourth-grade classroom. Amazon Prime Day, which runs through tomorrow, July 12, is a great time to stock up on rare discounts. Below, we've rounded up the best Prime Day deals for teachers. 

Since my stint as an assistant teacher, I've still never seen anyone pick clean a box of tissues faster than 10-year-olds during allergy season, so it's important to have plenty in reserve. During Prime Day, you can save 26% on pens, markers, and more with a supply kit from Sharpie. Or you can upgrade the break room into a teacher's lounge with a Nespresso machine on sale for $110. 

You can even make an Amazon wish list and share it with others who might pitch in to help cover classroom items (especially while they're on sale for Prime Day). This way teachers can spend less out of their own pocket and more time doing what they do best.
