HS Journal Pages

Post by andreacress » Thu Nov 10, 2016 5:36 pm

For those of you using the High School guides - What have you found to be the best writing utensil for the journal pages? My son prefers to use a pencil, but it is very hard to see on those shiny pages. Thanks!

The pencil can sometimes be hard to see. My Daughter used a mechanical pencil with #9 lead or a fine tip sharpie. The thicker lead seemed to show up a little wider and darker so it was easier to read. Of course, the problem with sharpie is obvious...it is permanent. She also typed some assignments and taped them into the appropriate box.

No problem. :) If you find any other solutions that work well, come back and post them. I would be interested in hearing about them.

We use Ticonderoga pencils, and they seem to work well. HTH!
