My Project

Third graders do a lot of writing! Whether it's writing essays and opinions, solving math problems, or practicing their cursive, having a well sharpened pencil is important.

These pencils, electric sharpeners and mini sharpeners will help my students 'stay on point' for learning.

In our classroom, pencils often break or get lost daily and need to be sharpened regularly. Having a durable pencil sharper will lessen disruptions during learning and help keep students engaged. These items will provide a pencil and crayon sharpening station where students can get a new pencil from the pencil dispenser or sharpen a broken one. With quality items and efficiency, students can replace their pencil and get back to learning quickly.
