Teacher Created Resources (76503) Smart Start K-1 Writing Paper: 360 sheets, White

Originally I received a completely different product and so I rated this as poor. Amazon fixed it for me and now I have the correct product. The quality of the paper is excellent, like a good quality printer paper, and the colors are bright. There are several lines to write on, and the lines are wide and tall, and good for beginner writers. I was concerned because the cost is a little high compared to other writing paper, but some of them were listed at 13 lb (which is thiner than the cheapest print paper you can buy at office supply stores), but this stuff is at least 20-24 lb, and printed in full color. This means it will erase better and not tear as easily as other practice writing paper. I think the "sky to the ground" visual is so smart for beginner writers. I'm just very pleased with this product.

I like this paper, the thickness is perfection. The idea with the clouds and flowers for letter formation is awesome. But, the thing I don't like is how wide each line is. It's awkward how big you have to make your letters. I tried writing myself and don't like how big you have to write, the movements of my have when writing is unrealistic. My kids are learning to write and they have a hard time making sure they are sizing their letters properly and that's what I bought this paper for. If the lines were just a little smaller I think it would be much easier to use.

I’m a Kindergarten teacher and was going back and forth between these or the grey papers that I’ve bought before. The grey ones tear easily and cannot sustain aggressive 5-year old erasings, so I thought I’d pay a little more for these. The kids seem to enjoy these being more cheery and colorful. When the frustrations of trying to properly write ‘s’, ‘z’, ‘2’, and ‘5’ set in, the angry-erasing began. Needless to say, what I enjoy about this product is the fact that the papers are able to hold up through angry, rage-filled erasing. To the point that the kids would then become angry that the paper wasn’t tearing no matter how aggressively they erased! I would watch, thinking it would rip and it didn’t and for that reason, I will continue to buy these.

I homeschool two of my Grands. One of them just couldn’t get the concept of where his letters were suppose to go on his lines. This paper is made by a genius! We talk and practice the letter that reach to the sky and the ones that stay close to the ground (the flower). He’s very into plants and know how they work. So letters like “g” and “j” go down to meet the roots of the flower. He finally gets it and it’s all thanks to this paper!! It’s very good quality paper also! Thanks so much! ❤️

The paper is good thick quality. Very smooth and colorful. I LIKE the cloud-flower concept for practicing name writing. I DISLIKE the cellophane used to wrap the sheets of paper. When I opened my shipment the package was already busted and some edges of the paper were bent.
