I am on my 3rd electronic pencil sharpener and it’s only mid-February. The first 2 casualties were due to natural causes {I think… still waiting on the autopsy results}. Enter Sparky… {yes, I named my pencil sharpener… don’t judge}. This pencil sharpener is available at Classroom Friendly Supplies. You can see all they have to offer here. I love that the company was started by a teacher… it is so nice to see teachers creating products and materials for other teachers based on classroom experiences, right?!?!
So the test for all pencil sharpeners is those dang pencils
that the kids love. You know the ones…
covered in that plastic-ish film; the film that will clog up your electronic
pencil sharpeners and make you want to say possible ugly words in your head. Those pencils never seem to want to sharpen
fully. I sometimes think the pencils are
taunting me, but that could just be me!
I almost always use the Ticonderoga pencils in my room because they
ALWAYS come through. They are faithful
and don’t disappoint. I decided to put
Sparky to the test right away. She
sharpened the Ticonderoga with ease {but again, that wasn’t hard!}. I then found one of those obnoxious plastic
covered pencils… this would be the TRUE test.
I sharpened and to my delight… it sharpened perfectly! Check out this picture as proof!
If you are in the market for a new classroom sharpener, you
really need to try out the super cool ones at Classroom Friendly Supplies! I obviously am in love with mine. It’s red, spunky, and super effective… oh,
and quiet. This ain’t yo momma’s pencil
sharpener! Thanks to Classroom Friendly Supplies for letting me do this
review. This was the easiest product
review EVER!!!

OMG-I will not use any other brand besides Ticonderoga because you'll sharpen and sharpen forever and one side always has the wood part on it. My electric pencil sharpener won't die. I HAVE to check out this pencil sharpener
