Chalk bothers my allergies so I am so happy that we don't use it to teach with anymore. We have an infocus machine now in our classrooms that projects from the computer onto our white dry erase boards. It is so great - such an improvement. I can scan a work paper into my computer, access it and project it really large onto the board. Everyone can see it. Then the kids can solve math problems etc. with markers. This is a huge improvement. I can also show clips on the board. We watched a video of a crayfish molting last year during one of our science units. It was taken in Australia!
I still hand embroider and love it. Would love to learn how to tat, too.
