    I was pleased last semester when I took a high school level science class that the lab I took it in still had a chalkboard. The teacher showed us a VHS tape about the water cycle and frequently used an overhead projector. Some of his worksheets were clearly originally typewritten.

    Ever since I had awareness of school 🏫 i was obsessive with chalkboards! I loved seeing them on TV...I was excited for kindergarten and when I got there on my first day a rectangular board was in place of it! I went home confused why don’t they have chalkboards at school? I grew up hating whiteboards...this was in 1999 kindergarten... White boards just don’t seem like a school tool blackboards are so much more old-fashioned and wholesome..I went to a church growing up and they had a Catholic school in one of the classrooms it was a third grade one and they had a beautiful black board and I snuck in there to dry things it was the closest thing to the real deal!

    I grew up with my sister teaching me preschool lessons on her chalkboard and it was the most fun at "school" i ever had when she would let me draw on her chalkboard. I got to school and by then they had replaced chalkboard with dry erase. I have to admit the switch makes since, but dame it if chalkboards aren't more fun to use and learn with. :(

    Harvard still uses chalkboards. They are more sustainable and should be used in all schools, in my opinion.

    It’s a good thing this video doesn’t include the sounds of writing on the chalkboard. I’d have fallen asleep from it near as often as I did in classrooms back in the day.

    Interesting video. Brought back memories from school in the 1950's and 1960's.
    Those old blackboards sometimes freaked out some of the kids when the chalk would make that high pitch squeal. Some kids would do that on purpose!! LOL! Never bothered me, though.

      You need to make sure your blackboard has sufficient flame retardant properties. 😉

      You can custom order a board. Im not sure how small they make a board.
      I just ordered a baord and i got the highest grade board they sell, porcline.
      My board is not yet hung so i cannot confirm how well it writes, but it appears to write well. I'll comment as soon as i can out how it writes.
      The frame is good and strong.
      Hope that helps.

      The porcelain chalkboard is very nice to write on. No, its not the same as slate, but its the next best to it.
      They recommend Prang chalk, and this is a nice chalk to use; it has some weight, which I like. The Crayola brand is ok, but if you can, get a higher grade chalk.
      The porcelain boards are magnetic also. Seeing as you are seeking a personal side, not sure what you could use magnets for.
      The person I worked with that helped me get my board was very helpful.
      I kinda wished i had added another foot to the length!!
