Do Schools Still Have Chalkboards? Mine Does, Help!

Help me give my students an organized place to find everything they need to know about the class for the week/ month/ trimester!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Johnson's classroom raised $254

My Project

Chalkboards are a whole new ballgame in my life. This is my first year having one and I am really worried as it is going to be a focal point in my classroom. In the past I have found myself utilizing a board for student to access. It states our goals, standards, what we are doing for the day/ week, and when things are due.

I had to repaint the board this year as the old board was discolored and had yellow stains running through the blue board.

I was hoping to make this a focal point in the classroom, but am finding myself at a loss.

This year I am starting from scratch and have a huge chalkboard. The only saving grace is that it is magnetic. I need the magnetic poles to hold up anchor charts and the tape to section off the board. I found markers that should work on the board and chart paper is lacking in my school. I plan on using the magnetic poles to hold the chart paper in a specific place. (To anchor my anchor charts!!! ) Any help would be greatly appreciated. This project should reach 140-160 students and make my life so much easier.

Thank-you for helping!
