Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Unfortunately, John and Mark erred when they said that school supplies are inexpensive.

Answer: marker

...MARK ERred when.... Sets of markers for graphic artists include many shades of each color, including gray. Most markers for kids are nontoxic and impermanent.

2. My school dictionary open, "cillium" was the first word I saw--it can mean "eyelash"!

Answer: pencil

...oPEN, "CILlium".... My favorite pencils are "Extra Soft" ones made by a company called Dixon Ticonderoga. They are yellow pencils with metallic green trim and nice pink erasers on the ends.

3. My papa's teacher used to pay for many of her students' school supplies.

Answer: paste

...paPA'S TEacher.... They used to call it "library paste." I like the way it smells. Don't eat it, though!

4. "It's a school rule," Robyn said, "to bring your own supplies."

Answer: ruler

...a school RULE," Robyn said.... You can buy transparent plastic rulers in many different colors. Some have stencils cut in them to help you draw perfect circles, squares, and triangles.

5. Use your school art supplies to cut a perfect circle.

Answer: tape

...cuT A PErfect circle.... There's transparent tape, masking tape, electrician's tape, and many other kinds. I love tape--don't know why.

6. His friends tap Leroy's shoulder and ask whether he remembered to bring his school supplies.

Answer: stapler

...friendS TAP LERoy's shoulder.... Usually, schools supply the staplers--students don't have to purchase them themselves. When stapling papers together, keep your fingers well out of the way!

7. In this modern era, servants don't often purchase their employers' kids' school supplies--but maybe they do in movie stars' families.

Answer: eraser

In this modern ERA, SERvants.... Erasers come in all shapes and colors, but I still prefer the good old rectangular pink ones with slanted ends. The erasers at the ends of pencils always seem to be used up before the pencil lead.

8. Our smart papa persuaded us to buy our school supplies early this year.

Answer: paper

...paPA PERsuaded us.... Lined paper is usually white with horizontal blue lines and a red vertical line on the left side. Sometimes there's a red vertical line on the right side, too. Notebook paper has three holes along the left margin so you can put the paper in a three-ring binder. Funtrivia Editor spanishliz offers even more info on this topic: "While in Canada and the US [binder paper] normally has 3 holes, for a three ring binder, in England it has only 2 holes and in Spain it comes with 4 holes! Never bought a binder in England, but have seen them in Spain with either 2 or 4 rings.

The 4-hole paper will fit in either." Thanks, Liz!

9. Her friends Shelby, Taylor, and Deb all point Penny in the right direction, telling her to buy her school supplies on time this year.

Answer: ballpoint pen

...Taylor, and DeB ALL POINT PENny.... Don't let this happen to you: once in junior high school I was sucking on my ballpoint pen. Suddenly my mouth was filled with dark blue ink! How embarrassing--and possibly toxic!

10. Mom said, "Please don't panic, Ray. On Saturday we'll buy your school supplies."

Answer: crayon

...don't paniC, RAY. ON Saturday.... I love the metallic-colored crayons: gold, silver, and copper. I also like the built-in sharpener that some crayon boxes have.
