Definately true. Cheap crayons are a waste of time. The results lack
vibrancy and the students don't like them. The color of the crayon is NOT
the color that goes on paper!

I like UHU as well, but don't use glue sticks much at all in my area. The
climate just isn't conducive to glue sticks lasting long term. I know some
teachers love them (I like the ease of use!) but know your climate, because
glue is definatley affected. My personal use is to hold paper down
temporarily as I arrange my composition.
