My Project

Pencils are a such a basic tool in class, we use them everyday for every subject and there are never enough pencils. I know it seems so basic but so much learning happens with this simple tool. Use pencils in math, writing, science, spelling and everything in between. Kids love having new pencils and it is like a holiday when you give them a brand new pencil. The joy of learning and writing down new information is so exciting. I know every single pencils will be used to learn and grow.
