I get waaaaay too excited about my paper cutter. I think it may be my favorite tool. You'd think as a teacher I'd be able to cut nice straight lines, but I can't. They always go crooked somehow no matter how hard I try. Combine that with the fact that I'm really ocd when it comes to my materials being neat and presentable? Then you'll realize how very much I am dependent upon my paper cutter. I can't quite get the same cuts from the chopping arm cutter at school . . . I like my sliding razor one.
Isn't she beautiful?!!? Ha! |
My complaint about my paper cutter? I have only one. I need one for home and one to stay in my classroom!
What are your teacher quirks?
I'm addicted to my paper cutter too!! And the automatic three-hole-punch (it still boggles my mind how much paperwork there is to do in special education!!) :)
ReplyDeleteGirrrll,
ReplyDeleteYou are preaching to the choir about that paper cutter. I can't stop morbid Texas Chainsaw Massacre visions from popping into my head when I have to use the chopper at school. I LOVE my slider cutter. I still have the one I bought from my very first year of teaching and I can't believe it has lasted so long. Just replaced the mats and the blade and it's like new! It is definitely worth it to have one for home and school. I got tired of toting mine back and forth!
Warmly,

YEA! I am not alone! It's somehow comforting to know that other people have the same strange affinity for their paper cutters. Maybe we need a support group. Or wait. Is that what the blogs are for?
