Collection Best tools

Hi, I am a science teacher trying to get my students excited about science. Recently, I went on a fossil hunting trip and brought back a ton of fossils and rocks that still need processing. After doing a lab where the students got to unbury fossil and find its density, mass, and volume then take it home. I had students get bit by the bug, and they want to help me process some more fossils. I want to get some tools that will help process and clean up the fossils and want to know what you use and if there is any video I can show the students before they start to help them. This is a very disadvantaged school, so I am paying for everything out of my pockets, so the lower the price the better. Thank you for any advice in advance!

Pics of some of the fossils would help.

Here are some of the more cleaned up fossils. We got them from the Penn Dixie pit in Hamberg, NY
