Magnetic Board!

·
I found this idea on Pinterest last summer.  I created my own version!!!!

I bought this:
Then, I spray painted with light blue spray paint.

Then, I drilled screws in each corner and drilled it into my classroom wall.  (shhh… don’t tell my school!)
I love this.  I use this as an interactive activity.  Students match the magnet letters to the flashcards that are taped on the magentic board.  I also have many other games we play using this.  We do relay races to incorporate movement with the letters, we time how fast a student can do it etc.
There are many uses for this little project.  I change it every month.  Last month I had numbers up!  Prior to that, I had student school pictures taped up.  Student’s had to use the magnetic letters to spell their friends names.  

Who else has this in their classroom? How do you use your magnetic board?
