Here we love keeping things super simple! We want our science and STEM activities to be easy, inexpensive, and most of all fun. If I can use the supplies I have around the house even better. These STEM activities using pencils are perfect for home STEM projects as well as group projects in the classroom.
Yes, kids of all ages can work on STEM projects and enjoy STEM lessons. STEM activities are great for group work, too! You can read more about the valuable life lessons that STEM can provide kids here.

I made the pencil box and it was cute, but standard pencil was too long and would not fit. making another a little longer and matching tote for my granddaughter for Valentines Day.Its possible my practice one was with was material too thick because I used less than 1/2 inch seam allowance.Not sure what the problem was, but will try again.
I am calling on Gov. Gavin Newsom to reject pressure from Poseidon Water to replace William von Blasingame on the Santa Ana water board with someone more sympathetic to its proposal. We need water leaders who put consumers first and prioritize projects that are both climate-smart and cost-effective.
And it was so much quicker and easier than I even thought! With just a few cuts with my miter saw on a scrap piece of wood I had, I was able to put this personalized teacher pencil sign together in under an hour (and that includes drying time!) with the help of my Cricut.
These wooden pencil signs can be customized in so many ways between what color you can paint them, to what decorations you want to put on them, and then also what color vinyl to use. A teacher can hang the DIY teacher sign on their door or have it stand on a desk or shelf!
I had made a long rectangle (0.5 inch wide by 11.5 inches long and then a smaller 0.5 x 5 one so it would wrap all the way around the wooden pencil) in Cricut Design Space and cut them out of metallic adhesive vinyl.
Draw with the pencil in circular marks, adding a variety of pressure as you go. The more complex and tight the scumbling is drawn, the darker the value of the pencil will appear. Challenge your artists to invent a new version of scumbling like a specific repeated scribbled line pattern.
Completely cover the surface of the paper with a mid-tone value of pencil. Using the eraser of the pencil, erase parts of the value to expose the white paper. Using dark pressure with the pencil, make heavy outlines to accentuate the composition.
Fold a piece of paper in half. Using hard pressure, start at the folded line of symmetry and draw one side of a symmetrical object like a butterfly or face. Fold the paper in half and use the hard part of the pencil body to rub the two sides of the paper together, transferring the graphite. Retrace the transferred image and design your symmetrical drawing.
Place a textured material, such as a leaf or a notebook spiral, underneath your paper. Using the wide side of your pencil, run your pencil over the area where the texture is below the paper. Search for a variety of textures to create a completed composition.
Tear an interesting edge or shape out of your paper. Using your pencil on the torn edge, draw dark lines surrounding the shape. Then, use your finger to blend the graphite off the edge of the torn paper to create a halo of smeared graphite.
Use your pencil as a ruler to measure some part of your living space. Continue to use the pencil as a measuring tool to calculate how large a few of the objects are in the room. Use your pencil ration to create a detailed drawing of the room.
Continue encouraging inventiveness, even when your students may only have minimal supplies available. Using only a pencil and paper is a great starting point to see what can be made, with restrictions.
We have been planting a tree for every pencil awarded for the last 3 years, but in an update to this work we have joined up with Everclime to increase the number of trees planted to an average of 4 for every pencil awarded.
By working with Everclime, the D&AD community will be directly connected to legacy impact. Dynamic profile pages will showcase and demonstrate the investment and impact generated by our pencil winners.
Future Impact Pencil
Early-stage projects that demonstrate the potential to drive behavioural, environmental, societal or policy change through creativity. Awarded to work in the Future Impact category.
White Pencil
Exceptional projects that use the power of creativity to drive behavioural, environmental, societal or policy change. Replaces the Yellow Pencil in the Impact and Sustained Impact categories.
Begin by cutting your felt sheets to fit. I wanted my case to be large enough to fit mechanical pencils so I used a new pencil as a guide. I left enough length to fold over to enclose the pencils at the end. For width, I made it wide enough to hold several pencils at once.
I would love to have my students make this pencil case.
Do you happen to have the dimensions of the 2 pieces of fabric
that get sewn together? I will then make a pattern for students
to cut out and pin to the fabric to cut out.
thank you!
I am the blogger behind this blog, a small business owner, both retail and wholesale. I'm a designer and design consultant, I blog about DIY projects, sewing tips and tutorials I've picked up along the way in the more than 35 years I've been sewing, home decor, and more.
Similar to the pool noodle pencils, these are SOOOOO easy to make AND are quite light-weight so the ideas for using them are endless (bulletin boards, photo props, garland, room decor, glued to a wreath, and MOOOOOORE!) ?
6. Glue together!
You are now going to warm up your trusty glue gun and start gluing everything together. Start with the bottom strip to cover the bottom of the pencil and then you will add the top cone as well.
Now string your colored pencils together and make a garland or glue them to a wreath or ANYTHING that you want to make them super fun and happy for your newly decorated art space or back to school photos ?
With a little research, I had some basic measurements that I used to create a pencil cutout outline in Affinity Designer. I exported this as an SVG file and imported that into xTool Creative Space. After some trial and error, I finalized a layout that allows for seating 24 pencils for engraving. I added some instructions, some openings for positioning pins when using on a honeycomb panel, and a small hole for hanging it.
I separated the jig project into two separate runs, each on its own canvas. The first run frames out and trims the board, cuts positioning pin openings, and cuts a hole for hanging your jig. Guides on the Framing canvas for pencil cuts are for reference only and are ignored.
This is the fun part. If you're not using a honeycomb panel, you can get rid of the prisms now. The jig is designed so the pencils sit flat on the surface, framed by each cutout. Just make sure the jig is positioned right at the top where you aligned it earlier to make it. And if you're making pencils for a left-handed person, you can flip the jig over so the eraser head cutouts are on the left. My pencils XCS file has canvases for both left- and right-handed engraving.
Now load up the tray with some pencils. If you're using commercial pencils with existing engraving, place the engraved side down. Round and hexagonal pencils should fit cleanly in the cutouts. Make sure you align the eraser end of the pencils flat against the edge. Regardless of how many pencils you're engraving, be sure to auto-measure the thickness with a pencil in the 12th (outlined) pencil cutout. That ensures your engraving is optimized for your specific pencils. If your M1's red laser dot doesn't appear on the 12th pencil, you may need to adjust the position of your jig.
In the Pencils.XCS file, you'll want to choose the appropriate (left- or right-handed) canvas. Then change the engraving you'd like on your pencils. The orange guides show you the engravable area. You may want to make sure they're properly aligned on your device by selecting and un-ignoring one, then running Framing. Adjust the jig or everything on the canvas as needed if it isn't aligned properly. It should be pretty exact if you're using the M1 riser base and honeycomb panel.
