Have you seen these pencil sharpeners?
I am sure that by now you have seen these amazing pencil sharpeners, but I am here to let you know that all the "buzz" is true!! I have been hearing about these across blogs, Pinterest, Facebook... everywhere. I wanted so badly to try one and see if it really was all of the hype. I had my trusty electric pencil sharpener, did I really need this one? The answer is YES YES YES!!
This is what our school provides us:
As I am sure that you know, these do not work! Yet, the kids are always obsessed with it? How is that? They eat up the pencils and half of the time, only one side of the pencil is actually sharpened.
As a result, I went out and purchased this bad boy!
I have always loved this pencil sharpener. It is fast, always sharpens pencils well, and is durable. The downfall, it is super expensive. Since it is so expensive and I don't want the motor to die, I do not allow my students to use it. That means that every morning I have to stand by the pencil sharpener and sharpen pencils for all 25 of my kids. This is not my idea of fun, especially when I am collecting money and notes, organizing lunch counts, answering phone calls, etc.
Well, not any more!! I picked up this fabulous pencil sharpener from Classroom Friendly Supplies. This is a teacher owned company so you know it has to work! They have sharpeners available in so many different colors and they are only $25!
This is a pencil sharpener that my students can work and it gets pencils sharper than any electric sharpener I have owned!
Here is how it works, in 3 EASY STEPS:
1. Squeeze the black knobs and pull out.
2. Squeeze the black knobs and put the pencil in. When you release the black knobs it will grip the pencil for you. The kids don't have to hold the pencil!
3. As you sharpen, it goes back in. When it goes all the way back in, your pencil is done!! A great visual for students!
I also love how small and compact it is. It will fit anywhere without taking up all of the space that an electric pencil sharpener does!
Be sure to head over and check out these pencil sharpeners. They truly are worth it!

100th Day and Read Across our Blogs
We finally had our 100th day of school. It was actually last week, but I am just now getting around to sharing!
Each year, for the 100th day I try to find something new and fun to do with my kids. This year, I stuck with my new favorite 100th day hats and we topped it off with my something new, Superhero capes.
When we make our hats, I like to have my students put 100 things that they have learned on their hats, specifically:
-10 sight words
-10 spelling words
-10 addition facts
-10 subtraction facts
-10 ten frames
-10 science and social studies words
-10 friends I have made
-10 stories I have read
-10 words to describe me
-ways to make 10 cents
These are all a part of my I am 100 Days Smarter Pack! You can grab it for free at my store.
Check out some of our fun pictures of us making our hats!
Some of our finished products!
This year, I added a fun project: Super Hero Capes! I picked up this pack from Mrs. Miner's Monkey Business. It turned out to be so worth the money! My kids absolutely loved this project and showing off their capes. I was truly impressed with the turnout with this family project.
Check out our fun capes!
We had so many creative ideas:
Googley eye'd monsters Pom Poms
Foamy Stickers
Stickers and Tattoos
Buttons and more!
We had a great time parading through the school showing off how smart we are! If you make these capes, I recommend using box tape to put your items on so that they stay. ;)
I am also prepared to give you another fun reading freebie for our Read Across our Blogs Linky.
Today's freebie is a sample of my nonsense word hidden picture packs. I have two of these available in my store.
The freebie I am sharing with you will only be free for a limited time so be sure to pick it up now. Just click on the picture below!
