The Most Important School Supply

The most important school supply is the pencil because it is used for writing and writing is really important in school. You could write with a pen or marker but you can’t erase those, you can only erase pencils. If you were really stubborn you would argue that you can just cross it out if you make a mistake. But if you cross a lot of things out then it will look sloppy and unprofessional. You keep your pencils in your pencil case. They are a great size and can fit in pretty much any bag or purse. Pencils are usually yellow or orange. But they can come in different designs or colors for the paint. They have an eraser on one end and a tip on the other end. Pencils are made of wood, graphite, metal, and whatever erasers are made of. All in all pencils are great to have on hand and in my opinion the most important supply at school.

I think the most important school supply are books, because you can get more education from reading. Reading will help you learn what words are and how to pronounce them. Pronouncing words is important because if you don't know how to pronounce words when you're in a higher grade or even when you're an adult you have to pronounce words correctly or else people won't understand what you're trying to say. And learning words is important because if you're in a conversation and that person says something you don't know, it will be a confusing conversation. The main reason I say that is because books can help you in tough situations. And books can only help you if you read them. BOOKS ARE IMPORTANT!

  I believe that the most important school supply is the PENCIL. You’ll probably need a pencil for most everything that you do in school. Your brain tells your hands to write each letter, and if you don’t have a pencil with you when you go to class, you will probably not be able to follow along with your teacher and classmates.  

    Your pencil will most likely have an eraser on the bottom, so you can get rid of your mistakes when you write or draw. If you have pockets or a bag with you normally like I do, you can carry pencils or a pencil with you at all times!

     The most important school supply is you. You can't make a pencil write, a notebook take notes or scissors cut paper without you. Almost all school supplies have a partner like a bff. A pencil and paper can't write without a paper, a paper has no purpose with nothing on it. But it also needs you. So go to school or you're going to have a bored pencil, then it becomes a sad one, and then a depressed pencil. 

     So please come to school. I know, I know all the math tests and writing are kinda boring (no offense math and or writing teachers). But please come to school.

I think giant pink erasers are the most important school supply because sure, I guess you might need a pencil to write but let's say you spelled onomatopoeia wrong and your pencil’s eraser just fell out you're stranded but if you have a giant pink eraser boom done. Not to mention if you're bored just draw a face on it and name it Bob, easy as that. Some come in different colors, not just pink, they can come in white, green, blue, and even yellow! That's why giant pink erasers are the best school supply.

I think that one of the most important school supplies is colored pencils, because they help you with so many things, like if you were going to do a project that involved color the colored pencil would be the perfect match, because with markers you could smear them, or you could make them bleed through the paper. Also crayons are hard to color in the lines with, so colored pencils are for the win! Plus you can shade, trace, and not stain yourself, unlike some other coloring supplies. So these are the reasons why colored pencils are the best school supplies.

The most important school supply is a chromebook. Chromebook is the most important supply because you can use it for working, typing and also having fun. With chromebooks you can play math games when you finish work. With chromebooks you can type without using pencils and paper. Chromebook is the best school supply because if it's 15 degrees outside you can play on your chromebook. Life would be terrible without a chromebook.

      In my opinion the most important school supplies is definitely a pencil. A pencil is an object you use to write, it is mainly yellow or orange except on the end of both sides. At the top of the pencil there is an eraser to help erase if you make a mistake. The metal piece that holds the pencil and eraser together. At the bottom of the pencil is where the graphite is inside of the wood. Once you sharpen a pencil it lets the graphite become pointer and easier to write with. A pencil is smooth and sometimes has words on it. You can use a pencil by holding it with your right or left hand. It depends which hand is your dominant hand. Now I’m going to explain why I believe that a pencil is the best school supply. First off it is easy to write with and you can hold it comfortably without your hand feeling sore for a rather long time. It is easy to write with and easy to erase mistakes. A pencil is also something that you use a lot and need a lot so it is good to have around. Those reasons are why I think the pencil is the best school supply.

I think the most important school supply would be the pencil because what would you write with if you didn't have a pencil? Some people would say that paper is the most important school supply but what would you write with? Even if you didn't have paper or a notebook to write in you could still write on a napkin or a notecard or something. You could write on a computer like I did to write this article. But writing on a computer all day probably wouldn't be that good for your eyes. A pen wouldn't be that great either because if you made a mistake you couldn't erase it. Unless you had an erasable pen, but I don't think everyone has one of those. The only downside of a pencil would be that if there's no eraser on the end then you can't really erase a mistake that you could make. That's why I think a pencil is the most important school supply and I hope you agree too.

I believe that the most important school supply is yourself because you can't go to school without yourself. I also believe this because you can go and get a pencil from the pencil bin but you are one of a kind and can NOT be replaced! Also markers, crayons and glue are not that important. Plus you are really cool and pencils are not. That is why you are the most important school supply.🙂

I think the most important school supply in my opinion is the one and only pencil!! The pencil can help you in many jobs like architect, teacher, waitress and so much more. A pencil is one of the most useful tools. Forget about the pen with the bold ink. It can still dry out on you, it’s very annoying when you are writing and your pen just decides to stop working. Another reason that a pencil is the best school supply is because it can still work on so many materials like paper, rock, wall, wood and much more. One thing you can do with a pencil is fidget with it like weave it though your fingers and spin it on a table, or with a pencil create a good drawing, you can draw the picture then shade with your pencil. This is my opinion on THE MOST IMPORTANT SCHOOL SUPPLY.

The most important school supply is a pencil. Because without a pencil you can’t do anything. If you need to do writing you need a pencil. If you need to do math problems you need a pencil. If you don’t have a pencil you can’t write rough drafts (even though you don’t need to sometimes). If you don’t have a pencil you won’t be able to track your reading log. If you don't have a pencil you can't write down notes and without notes you can’t really do exams and you will fail and then you won’t have a career then you just wasted your life. Even if you want the fancy and cool mechanical pencils it still matters. Even if you can do your work on the chromebook you will need a pencil someday. So that's why the pencil is the most important school supply in the world. DON’T LOSE YOUR PENCIL KEEP IT SAFE.

In my opinion the best school supply is the number two Dixon TICONDEROGA pencil. If you did not have a pencil you would not be able to write well, unless you use a pen, but if you use a pen you can’t erase. Well, unless you have erasable pens but I don't even know where to get those. So those are some of the reasons I think a pencil is the best school supply.
