This is Day 2 and the inspiration came from A Bushel and A Peck . Teachers really appreciate classroom supplies ... especially when they don't have to use their own money to buy them. Pencils are always a good choice.
But if you are going to buy them, make sure you get the Ticonderoga brand. I know what you're thinking. "It's a pencil. As long as it's a No. 2 what does it matter?"
Well, let me tell you. Just like everything else, you get what you pay for when you buy a cheap package of pencils. We have noticed that the cheap ones break easier and they are harder to sharpen, the lead is not centered in them. If you really want to make a teacher smile, buy the kind that come pre-sharpened. Seriously, it's the little things! We are placing these in a basket along with a multi-color pack of dry erase markers (there are no chalkboards in our classrooms).
By the way, the "Thanks A Latte" cards were well received.
