My Project
No writer can write without a pencil. No artist can draw without a pencil. No mathematician can "show their work" without a pencil. Every creative mind needs a pencil to cement their ideas on paper. Please help my students share their thoughts and ideas by providing us with sharpeners we can have access to on a daily basis to keep our pencils ready to use.
My third-grade class could really use your help—we’re trying to get two electric pencil sharpeners to keep our learning running smoothly!
With 24 eager writers and only one tired manual sharpener, we’re losing time (and patience!) every day. These sharpeners will help us stay focused, creative, and ready to learn.
