Some of my students with learning disabilities have executive functioning problems, which basically means that I must find a way to organize them in a way that makes sense for them individually. Some must be on a point system, and this set of pencils is one prize for one student who is very artistic, but has no art materials. It's a great little set of different value pencils, and I love that they're woodless, which means that she'll gt more use out of them. They're a fine quality, and I love that they come in their own little box. I'm really wanting to give them to this student, so I hope she earns her points soon so I can give them to her. She's a wonderful artist. Another prize is that with enough points, she gets 10 minutes of art instruction from me, something to which she's looking forward. The pencils will make the session a real winner because they're such high quality. I also love that for a beginning student, there are different values so that she can experiment with what she likes best and see what works best for her. I think I'll get a tin of these for myself for when I'm out and about! You won't go wrong with these pencils.
