The value of the Reading Eggs Teacher Toolkit

Reading Eggs subsription

The 2018 State of Our Schools survey found that 9 out of 10 public school teachers use their own money to purchase supplies for their school or students (AEU).

Moreover, half of these teachers spend more than $500 per year on basics such as stationery, classroom supplies and library resources (The Educator).

These findings got us thinking about the resources included in the Reading Eggs Teacher Toolkit. Packed with extra resources to support teaching and learning, the Teacher Toolkit holds considerable value (at no additional cost to Reading Eggs subscribers) for teachers who are looking for classroom resources. But how much exactly?

We attached a value to each resource based on the current market to get an answer. Here’s what we found.

Big Books | $14000

In a perfect world, no teacher would have to use their own savings to pay for basic school resources. However, challenges with school budgets force teachers to take matters into their own hands when it comes to resourcing.

There are many ways you can get your hands on classroom resources (such as books) on a budget. But we can’t think of any other way to get access to $30000 in high-quality resources other than a Reading Eggs subscription.
