Case: Pencils!
My students are constantly sharpening pencils in the classroom. 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!)
In my classroom their are two mini buckets on my desk labeled "Need to be sharpened" and "sharpened". I make sure that there are always some sharpened pencils in the "sharpened" bucket. If a students pencil breaks, I can simply take the broken pencil and place it in the "needs to be sharpened" bucket and supply them with a sharpened pencil. I also keep buckets with sharpened pencils at each of their group stations. They are to use the pencils at their group stations first - this way distractions are minimized. At the end of the day, I'll have certain classroom helpers sharpen the "need to be sharpened" pencils with me for the next day. This has been a great strategy in our class - I would recommend trying it! |

Comments: Great solution! I love the idea of the two buckets for students to have sharp or unsharp pencils as they can easily be implemented in the classroom. |
