Mini white board

[WowOoo]

Any ideas where i can get one of these?

It would need to be magnetic. Have reception magnetic key words but nowhere to put them.

Put them on the fridge.

Last week I bought a magnetic board with letters from the Early Learning Centre. We use it to practice spellings in Y1. Not sure whether it can be used as a whiteboard as well. Its blue with white lines on it.

An office supplies type place, like Ryman or Staples?

Thanks, will check ELC.

Our fridge has a wooden door. I thought about using our oven, but thought better of crap idea.

WH Smiths have them. They are fab. Kids do all their spellings on them.

Buy a cheap, shallow roasting tin from the pound shop. We use them in the classroom. Take a magnet with you though, to check they are magnetic!

Euphemia - oh, just the website where I can go and spent lots of money on colourful stuff.

Baker Ross has loads of stuff.... Oh no, I may be spending more than i planned to today.

Thanks for ideas.

I bought a metal tray for ours (as littlefish indicates, having taken a word to test it wasn't aluminium). Has the advantage that once the child doesn't need it, I've got an extra tray rather than junk!

tesco had them for 56p,not sure if they are magnetic tho

"Bright minds" catalogue has them.

If you're stuck short term for something to use magnetic letters etc on... chocolate tin lids work well.

WH Smiths used to have a nice one about A4 size for about a fiver. Substantial as I am still using mine after more than 5 years of tutoring. I could do with investing in a new one soon though as the paint has begun to scratch!

We brought the ELC magnetic letter desk, the lid is the magnetic board and it comes out. Has the added advantage of giving you somewhere to store the letters and doubles as a chalk boasrd and paper storage.

Thanks for all these options and ideas. Will be shopping later.

Must control myself as i often use the 'it's educational' excuse to go crazy.

Any other ideas for essential educational stuff now that ds1 is in school?!
