FOR WRITING
In the younger grades, students do a lot of illustrating with details in their pictures. I discovered that bundling up their colored pencils and markers and teaching them to take only one out at a time and then slide it back in before taking out another one, works FANTASTIC. No pencils on the floor, no pencils rolling around, and no mixed up colors. Store them in a box or bucket and WAAA LAAA, you're ready to go!.

Great tip! We always have colored pencils rolling across the tables. :(
