Anyone know where I can buy small individual chalkboards?

To use for review games, etc. I looked on Educational Warehouse's website but couldn't find anything. TIA!

White board slates can be easily and cheaply produced. Purchase a sheet (4' by 8') of white bathroom wall board (white tile board - about $10) - you'll recognize it quickly as it resembles classroom white boards. Cut the sheet into the size boards you wish to use. One sheet creates 8 larger (2' by 2') white boards or 18 smaller (16" by 16") white boards. The bathroom wall board can be easily cut with a circular saw or table saw and the cut edge should be roughly sanded. Some home improvement stores (Lowe's, Home-Depot) may cut the bathroom board for you free of charge (or for a minimal cost) if you tell them you are a teacher and wish to use it in your classroom.


These homemade white boards work in the same manner as classroom white boards. They can be wiped clean with a dry cloth (or eraser) and should be cleaned occasionally with a regular household spray cleaner. When you have your entire class using the white boards, be sure to use low-odor markers. If regular odor markers are used with an entire class, the smell can become quite strong. Wash cloths purchased from a Dollar Store serve as good "erasers" for the students and only require washing once or twice a year.
