Reinventing the Pencil

Ever been taking a test or in a high anxiety environment and all you can concentrate on is the person next to you clicking their pen or tapping their pencil? As distracting as this is, it can be stimulating for the person doing the clicking. 
A teacher has found a way to meet the needs of both the child who needs the silence and the child who needs to make the movement.  Clothespins rubber banded to the top of a pencil! This allow the student holding to pencil to get the same stimulation he got from clicking of tapping, but with less noise to interrupt the other students!
