How this list was compiled: Every label and every other Spanish word named here was read on 2026-10-02 in two dictionaries: the Spanish-English dictionary of WordReference (https://www.wordreference.com/es/en/translation.asp?spen= followed by the word) and SpanishDict (https://www.spanishdict.com/translate/ followed by the word). Both give the gender and the classroom meaning of pizarrón, pizarra, escritorio, pupitre, silla, reloj, puerta, ventana, estante, estantería, librero, basurero, papelera, libro, lápiz, regla, tijera, borrador, goma and mochila. Both mark el pizarrón and el basurero (the container) as Latin American. WordReference gives estantería, estante and librero for the English word bookshelf (https://www.wordreference.com/es/translation.asp?tranword=bookshelf) and SpanishDict gives el estante (https://www.spanishdict.com/translate/bookshelf). For the room itself WordReference gives aula, clase, salón and salón de clases (https://www.wordreference.com/es/translation.asp?tranword=classroom) and SpanishDict has el salón de clases, Latin America, as an entry of its own (https://www.spanishdict.com/translate/sal%C3%B3n%20de%20clases); both have el aula, a feminine noun that takes el. School supplies: WordReference, útiles, a plural masculine noun; SpanishDict lists útiles escolares among its phrases. The wording of every line is our own. Licence: own work
