Last week we received a new pencil sharpener for the classroom. I have been reading many wonderful reviews about this sharpener so I decided to give it a shot. I purchased it from Classroom Friendly Supplies and it comes in a variety of colors.
We had to have a pencil sharpening party as soon as I got it out if the package. There were 2 reasons for the party:
1. It's tricky to use so we had to have a tutoring session.
2. Everyone wanted to try it and it worked better for me to stop class for a moment, allow everyone to sharpen one pencil, and then move on with our day.
I still had to fight the pencil sharpener for my class' attention that day, even after the pencil party.
So far we love the sharpener and it puts the most amazing point on a pencil you've ever seen. The cons: it will not stay mounted, and a spring already popped out of the back.
