STABILO pencils for learning to write

Loose & relaxed

The first letters are usually learned with a pencil in elementary school. Here it is important to use the pencil in a controlled and relaxed manner without exerting too much pressure. Otherwise, the hand will quickly become cramped and tired. Non-slip grip zones that are adapted to the hand help to convey a feeling of control over the pencil.

Focus on correct hand position

Thicker pencils also provide better grip and make handling easier. Both help reduce pressure when writing and prevent muscle fatigue. It is also important that the leads are unbreakable so that children are not demotivated by constantly having to re-sharpen broken leads. Thanks to the thick triangular shape and the precise, non-slip grip moulds of our STABILO EASYgraph graphite pencils, which have been specially developed for left- and right-handers, preschoolers and schoolchildren intuitively find the right hand position. The fingers of the writing hand remain loose and relaxed, even when more and more words are to be written faster and faster.

: With a pencil for first graders, it is important that the pencil can be used to write in a controlled and relaxed manner without exerting too much pressure. Otherwise, the hand will quickly become cramped and tired.

Non-slip grip zones that are adapted to the hand help to convey a feeling of control over the pen. Thicker pens also provide a better grip and make handling easier. Both help reduce pressure when writing and prevent muscle fatigue.

It is also important that the leads are break-proof so that children are not demotivated by constantly having to re-sharpen broken leads.

Good examples of school pencils for 1st grade are the STABILO EASYgraph and STABILO EASYergo 3.15.
: Thicker pencils give a better grip and are easier to handle. The thicker a pencil, the more grossly motorized its use can be. Conversely, thinner pencils require a higher degree of motor control and competence (analogous to the difference between a pin and a sewing needle).

Children therefore have less of a feeling of loss of control when writing with thicker pencils, which, especially when combined with non-slip grip zones, reduces pressure when writing and prevents muscle fatigue. The thicker lead that goes hand in hand with the pencil thickness also helps novice writers in particular, as it writes more smoothly and breaks off less quickly.
: Since hardness grades for pencils have not been standardized to date, it is difficult to give a clear answer here. In general, the less automated the writing movements are, the less fluent and slower the writing, the softer and thus easier the lead should be to glide. The most common hardness grade in Europe is the medium HB lead hardness, which is also often used in school pencils. However, softer leads such as B or (more rarely) 2B can also be found here.
