SUPER
PENCIL
Tape a bunch of pens,
markers, or pencil crayons
together to make writing
and drawing more fun!
GLUE ERASER
Run out of eraser?
Make a new one from hot
glue. It acts just like an
eraser once it hardens!
(Ask an adult for help.)
BOOK BAND
Wrap a wide elastic band
around a notebook to give
your pen a cozy spot to hang
out. You can also use the
band to mark your page!
SHARPEN UP!
Contain your pencil shavings
by gluing a sharpener
inside the top of a
small gum container.
