My favorite way to use dry erase markers in the classroom is having my students use them to trace over laminated cards or fill in the answers on the laminated cards

I use dry erase markers during OT with my students. They love writing letters and erasing them as they trace with their fingers. Or, we play games – hangman, tic-tac-toe, etc. Doesn’t waste paper and the kid shave fun!

We do homework every night with a dry erase board. It helps my daughter to be able to erase if she had the wrong thing and we can write it a bit bigger than on a sheet of paper and use fun colors to make the homework experience a bit more enjoyable….Love our Expo Markers!!!!

I am a pediatric occupational therapist so I use a lot of dry erase markers to work on handwriting, pencil grasp, hand and finger strength, etc. I use dry erase alphabet and number books, or I put worksheets into a plastic sleeve. We work on hand, finger and arm strength when bunching up a paper towel and pressing hard to erase.

I love this! I can’t wait to try it with my daughter. Regularly we keep a dry erase calendar in our kitchen which I religiously update to keep us on track. My daughter also has her own collection of fun colored dry erase markers and a board in the garage which she draws on while spending time with daddy in the garage…and there’s always hangman too!

We use dry erase markers to help with our music lessons and also to practice our multiplication tables. We sometimes use them to leave messages for each other as a way of encouraging each other to always try our best. Sometimes I write chores on the white board so that once the boys get home from school, they know what is expected of them that day. Much easier than walking around behind them and constantly reminding them :-).

I love using dry erase markers to keep our family calendar in order. It’s colour coordinated and the dry erase makes it so easy to make changes.

Just the traditional way here- we use it on the whiteboard to draw pictures, fill out the monthly calendar and sometimes list chores.

I have used dry erase markers on different surfaces over the years. My favorite surface is a small porcelain sign(5X7) that I write on and then put on a stand. I sometimes write the menu or a greetings of a holiday! Such fun!!!

I use them to write reminders on the bathroom mirror. We also use them on the patio door to play around. One person will draw something and a few hours or days later someone else will add to it until we have a whole scene, then we start again.
