My Project

My scholars enjoy creating projects that showcase their talents in writing and drawing.

Creating masterpieces on regular white paper just isn’t good enough!

Sharing great news with fellow students and teachers in our school on bright paper or to draw the perfect setting for a new book looks much better on brightly colored paper! And what we know for sure is that Ticonderoga pencils work best for writing and drawing. For the many projects that we do, this brand of pencil is the best. These materials will make a difference in my students’ learning by giving them the tools they need to be their most creative.
