I started them off the school year with individual pencils and bag, but this method doesn't seem to work. They get up during every block of the day. What do you suggest I do? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would suggest putting pencils in an easily accessible part of the room where students get a pencil if needed and return it when they no longer need it. I have what is called loan a pencil in my room, and my pencils have my name them so I know they are mine. Because of this, no time is wasted by the students to sharpen or find another pencil.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: Good idea Rated On: October 18, 2015 7:41 pm Rated By: jasyHa                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: Very good.
