@heylookitsemily: An open letter to construction paper companies. I’m aware that some companies already presort the colors, but why must I take 1937383 minutes to sort out each color I need for a project. Sincerely, an overworked and underpaid teacher.
Always heard it called construction paper growing up now Ive been in the field 10 years aint seen ts once 🙄

but the thrill of rifling through a bunch of green, orange, and brown to finally find the ONE pink one left is so good lol.

if they put the colors together in the packaging, it doesn't look at appealing. scattered colors makes it look like more colors are available. it's a marketing tactic, hope that helps 😊

had a teacher in elem that had sorting these as one of a few activities (such as quiet reading and word searches) to be done if you finished your work early

My dad used to work at a factory that produced these: it’s because they’re on these huge rolls of paper and are basically all cut at once to 8.5X11 so you get all the different colors

So you can put it in the printer to print on and it is divided evenly among the colors

Well yeah.... they would cut and dye all one color at a time. Why not 15 of red, then 15 of orange, etc. I ha e questions lol

They have big sheets they cut all together? So instead of sorting they just package as is? That would be my guess

why don't you just buy the packs that are all one color instead of the multi-pack?

just searched it up — apparently it’s more cost-effective to put a lotta colors in a single pack rather than make separate batches 😭 i believe it’s possible to buy separate packs of (1/2)
