Move over Papermate Flair. Take a seat, Gelocity. There's a new favorite pen in town.
If you know any teachers, you know we have a thing for pens. Fun colors make grading more fun (and more fun for the kids), filling in our calendars, and taking notes. When I started teaching, my favorite pens were Papermate Flair. They are nice but more like a marker than a pen.
Then my son introduced me to Gelocity. Very nice. Great colors, but I find that they occasionally skip while I'm writing.
From there I hit on Pilot FriXion. The advantage to these is that they are ERASABLE. But not like the old school erasable pens. These are more legit and they aren't clunky to write with.
Until one day I borrowed a pen from my principal. A kind I'd never seen before. I was hooked.
These are also Papermate, just not flair. These are Papermate Inkjoy GEL. GEL is important. The other inkjoys are nice but...well, they are no Inkjoy Gel.

| The best teacher pens ever |
I treated myself after we started the lockdown because I wanted some new pens. These bad boys came in the mail and make doing my teaching-from-home a little more fun. Plus I'm writing lots of cards and letters to my grandparents these days so these come in handy for brightening it up.
If you are looking for a pick-me-up treat for yourself or a teacher in your life, I would highly suggest the Papermate Injoy Gel pens. This is not a sponsored post. Papermate gave me nothing to write it. I just LOVE a good pen! These Papermate Gel pens run about $15-20 for a pack of 14 pens.
