Make a whiteboard for yourself in less than 5 minutes! You can use a blank or printed sheet, depending on what you want to do.

Steps

  1. 1
    Buy sleeve protectors from the store. Usually these come in bulk and are really cheap. Look for the shiny plastic ones, not the ones with a matte finish. Make sure it can fit a standard piece of paper (8.5"x11" or A4).
  2. 2
    Insert a blank sheet of paper.

  3. 3
    Insert a printed sheet of paper, instead. Ruled paper, graph paper, worksheets, and practice pages all work, and you or your students can change them out for different tasks.
  4. 4
    When you are done filling the sleeve protectors, add two sheets of white cardstock to the binder, one in the back and one in the front. They'll provide a firm surface to write on and protect items alongside the sheet from getting smudged.
  5. 5
    Use a dry-erase marker to write on the sleeve and a piece of felt for an eraser.

    No. They retain their marks on whiteboard even after washing.

Warnings

  • Make sure you wipe away all the dry erase marker from your board. If not, they could stay and when you rub them off, it could smear and look ugly.

  • Eventually these boards will get dirty. Just transfer all of the paper inside to a new sleeve protector.
