Elmer’s Glue Stick Giveaway

Posted on by Frankye

Update: We have our winners! Congratulations to Jennifer and AnnaMarie for winning the Elmer’s Glue Stick Giveaway!

Jennifer:

This time of year, teachers search through sales ads looking for the best price for school supplies for the coming year. We all have students who cannot afford supplies and so we dig deep into our pockets to provide for them so that they can be excited about returning to school too with brand new school supplies. My colleague and I just discussed the other day where we might find the best price for glue sticks. We both teach 130+students in our 3rd and 4th grade Science classes. With so many students, we tend to go through glue sticks quickly making models, creating foldables and working in our journals. We would love to win Elmer’s glue sticks for our students. Thank you for offering such a wonderful giveaway.

AnnaMarie:

I am a kindergarten teacher and do many projects using glue sticks with them. Many children, coming into kindergarten, need the fine motor skills of cutting and gluing since they were not given those opportunities prior to starting kindergarten. Having strong fine motor skills helps make drawing, coloring and writing much easier! I also have 2 teammates that I would happily share the supply. Thanks for the opportunity!!

Hope you guys have a great school year! Congratulations again! And thank you to all the participants! Don’t  miss our new Paper Mate Giveaway and your chance to win dozens of Paper Mate pens and pencils, plus Liquid Paper correction tape! Good luck!

So before you toss your scratchy pen, try our 5 tips on how to revive dried out pens. Continue reading →

EXPO Dry Erase Markers Giveaway

Posted on by Frankye

Update: We have a winner! Congratulations to Kim, who said:

I use EXPO markers and whiteboards every day as a middle school band director. I’m allergic to chalk, so one of the first things I did as a new director to the school was to cover the chalkboards with whiteboards. Unfortunately, my dry erase markers always dry out before I can order new ones. I also teach at a Title 1 middle school (about 90% of the students are from low-income families and are on the state’s free and reduced lunches). My budget is VERY small, so I typically purchase office supplies (like my EXPO markers) myself out of pocket. My students and I would be so very grateful if we won the EXPO markers.

Very glad we could help, Kim! Everyone else, we’ve got another great giveaway happening right now! Enter the Sharpie Giveaway today for your chance to be a winner!

Teachers review on Environmentally Friendly Dry Erase Markers

Posted on by Frankye

teacher-review-environmentally-friendly-dry-erase-markers

Your feedback matters at On Time Supplies. We read every review posted on the site, and are always really excited to hear what you think of our products and our service. Our customers are so thoughtful, and sometimes we get a great review we just have to share. Pilot Pen’s “BeGreen” environmentally friendly dry erase markers fly off the virtual shelves during school school months. And thanks to all the great reviews we get from teachers, we know why.

Teachers LOVE Pilot® BeGreen® Eco-Friendly Dry Erase Markers!
This is a great white board marker. It writes boldly without leaving residue after erasing. Also, it does not erase itself when you mark over the same place more than once like most white board markers do. So if you need to write in cursive on the board this is an excellent tool to use.
– ejkern01 from Louisville, KYI teach second grade and the kids use dry-erase markers all the time on their whiteboards. Someone’s marker is always going dry. It will be nice to have a refill handy and at a reasonable price. I love this product!
– Georgeanne from ILT

This Dry Erase Marker is one of the best markers I have used.
– klcraig from Oakfield, WI
I was pleasantly surprised to find out that this marker was so green for the environment, I commend the thought of this marker! It has an ease of use and very durable casing. The fact that it has the replaceable parts makes this such an ease on money, the environment and use. Costs much less than expected and less waste after use. To me these markers should replace all other dry erase marker products.
