A major feature of our redesign and transition from the Incense Cedari Institute Pencil Pages website to the new Pencils.com site is the creation of our "Story of Pencils" channel.

This channel features the integration of the student-teacher pencil information resources from the former site with the Incense Cedar Institute's Teacher Eduction Kit into a comprehensive on-line learning resource. This kit named "The Story of Pencils: Technology and Tradition"
has now been bought online and coupled with the new lesson plan generating capabilities of Pencils.com greatly enhances the teaching value of the Teacher Kit that was formerly only available only by mail for a fee.

The Story of Pencils is an ideal means of bringing to life important aspects of your social science, science and environmental curricula through the example of the commonplace pencil. We are excited about the potential for this new resource and hope you will make use of it. We will be updating content within the Story of Pencils pages as well as adding new and interesting lesson plans related to pencils.
