Teachers spend their own money on their classrooms every year. This post is the opposite of that: a single list of everything free across the Bell to Bell projects. Bookmark it, share it with your team, and come back when you need something.
Start of class: bell ringers
Today's Bell Ringers: Fresh every school day, live before the day starts.

For the hard days (paid, clearly labeled)
Not everything can be free. For the days that go sideways, the Teacher Emergency Toolkit on Teachers Pay Teachers has ready-to-use packs for de-escalation, work refusal, behavior documentation, and sub plans. Everything else on this page stays free.
