Questions
It appears that 10-11 year olds must ask many questions. And they must ask the same questions and must receive their own perosnal response. It isn’t good enough to give an answer that will cover everyone. It also appears that sarcasm is lost on them. Maybe I should be more blunt. No offense to 10-11 year olds or their parents.

what’s wrong with pen, mrs. “one line through day”?

Perhaps they lack the ability to understand common sense, so you have to explain why they need to be able to erase as they go. Although if erasable pens are really erasable, then I guess those would be OK, unless it’s just some kind of rule just for the sake of having a rule.

This thread is hilarious. BTW: Sam gets sarcasm…

A rule just for the sake of having a rule? Who would ever do that? That’s just plain cruel.
I don’t like erasable pens because the ink stays wet longer and it smears alot. So the kids turn in these smeared up, hard to read, ugly pages. And the cheap ones don’t really work too well anyway so there is this big pile of wrong and hopefully right answers all on top of one another, which again, is hard to read.
yes, i am miss on line through the day, and i get paid for it. i can check my email when ever i want, look at the news, read blogs, check the weather around the world. and my boss doesn’t even care. that’s because i get paid for what i do, not for how long i’m here. life is great!

OOOOHHHHH! Did you say one-line-through day? I thought you said ON-line-through day! Ha Ha!
But anyway, one-line-through is just for composition. Don’t you know the rules?

YAH. I guess cpa’s can get away with it. i have to say that because i work for a cpa and he uses pen for everything.
