ABSTRACT
The study on the production of chalk out of sea shells was designed to produce quality dustless and long lasting chalk to compare with the standard existing commercialized chalks if there are any, which was sold in the market. The chalk out of sea shells is for local or non-local used for schools or any educational aspects or even at home which can be formed into different sizes and colors according to your will. We, the researchers, used the sea shells to recycle and transformed it into a useful product that will be used in our developing community. The production of this artifact that has been created by us strictly followed the procedures. First, collect sea shells from the sea shore. Then, boil it until it opens and being crushed into powder and becomes ready to be processed and made to different figures. Thus, the production of the product was accomplished and tested on its quality and strength. Data on the successful product were tested and was finished accurately. Results showed that the said finished product, made from sea shells, is comparable in terms of appearance and quality.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
Having a successful investigatory project is really a great pleasure to us. It helps us improving a certain project and identifying new discoveries from raw materials which can be seen abundantly in our surroundings. So, we, the researchers would like to thank to the following persons who help us make this project successful. First, to our Almighty God who gave us the wisdom that leads us to come up on this great
