Invention to Make School Better The pencil dispenser is a mechanism that allows you to always have a fresh and new pencil in every class period. It would be placed in each classroom so that there wouldn’t be one classroom without it.

Purpose It would help conserve the amount of trees used for pencils because you can reuse your pencils after every class you get a fresh new pencil. Students would never be unprepared for class by missing pencils because they wouldn’t need to bring pencils to class.

Benefits This invention will benefit kids in middle school who don’t bring pencils every class. They will be supplied a new pencil so that they don’t have to go back to their locker. When they are done using the pencil, they can put it back into the box by a pencil-shaped hole on the top.

How It Works The Pencil Dispenser is a box mounted on the wall that gives you a choice of regular wood pencils or mechanical pencils. The button underneath the pencil that you want gives you the pencil you want through the slot at the bottom. When you are done with the pencil, you can put it back into the box by an opening in the top of the box.
