How is everyone doing? I’ve just rewarded myself with a huge glass of Paradis Secret – AOP Languedoc for surviving three weeks of homeschooling and self-isolation. So far there has not been any cabin fever yet in my home as we still go for our quick daily walks and the beautiful weather only means that we are spending more time in the garden. For those of you who are homeschooling your children at home, this post will be perfect for you as we are featuring Magnetic Table Top Dry Wipe Whiteboard Wedges from TeacherBoards which will help you in your mission of teaching your children at home.
The magnetic whiteboard is such a great tool to have at home, I am using this to write my children’s timetable as well as a list of homework to be complete for the day and details of what gadget’s been taken off them (if they have been grounded for the day). My children, on the other hand, use the magnetic board it to be creative and write stories on the board or do their calculations on it when they are doing their maths. The board is lightweight and portable so I can easily move this from the table to the storage area at the end of the day. It also comes with anti-slip rubber feet which means that it has a stable base and does not slide around.
The magnetic board comes with 4 coloured whiteboard marker pens and 2 magnetic dusters. We love the fact that it is double-sided which means that both our kids can use one side of the board each, when they are doing their homework. We ordered the A3 size which is 0.34 x 0.46m and it the perfect size for our table.
For those of you who are struggling with materials, tips and resources to keep teaching your kids going, do head to the Tech from home hub from TeacherBoard’s website for some advice on how to teach from home and how to create an optimised learning space. These resources are free to access and all the printables and materials can also be downloadable for free. I find that finding new materials and websites keep the kids motivated to do some form of work whilst they are at home.
How much is the Magnetic Table Top board?
The Magnetic Table Top Dry Wipe Whiteboard Wedges is available in three colours ie red, blue and yellow and comes in two sizes ie A2 size and A3 size. We have featured the A3 size in our post and this is priced at £75 (excluding VAT) or £90 (including VAT). This is a great board for parents trying to homeschool their children or for teachers teaching a small group of students.

Good to know that works too! I learn so much from you as well! Keep it up great post.
So glad you do, thank you and enjoy your Easter weekend
Oh this is such a good idea, stops a lot of wasted paper whilst homeschooling!
I agree with you, especially when it comes to doing math sums, we tend to use recycled paper but not anymore
Aw this is what I am looking for! My 7 and 10-year-old kids love to draw and they use all of my scratch papers and I’m almost out of scratch. I am getting anxious they will paint my entire wall haha.
I totally get you as we have 2 restless kids at home as well and always looking at ways to entertain and keep them busy
A great investment right now while families are homeschooling. I voluntarily homeschooled my kids when they were younger and the whiteboard was so essential!
it is so important as it is so versatile and can be used for every single subject
I do not know a child who dislikes writing on a white board, so I can only imagine what a hit the Magnetic Table Top Dry Wipe Whiteboard Wedges are with homeschooling! I agree that it would also be super cool for to-do lists and some other functions. Whiteboards are just so easy to read and I’m really into the magnetic and dry white features of this one.
Absolutely agree with you 100% Ashley, they just love it
What a neat product! This sounds like a great thing to have at home. I love the design.
It sure is especially if you have kids who are homeschooling
I did not know that you could get magnetic whiteboards! It looks great and would be a help at the moment with home schooling, however for me this is a bit too pricey for a whiteboard that no doubt will not be used once my son goes back to school.
We did think about that, and I planned to donate it to my local home tutor if we do (in the future) not use the board anymore. But at the moment, we use this everyday so money well spent
This is brilliant! I like that you have a designated spot for the markers and eraser. It’s definitely a good investment for homeschooling parents.
Yes it sure is Yaya especially since kids are staying home and so much work needs to be done
Wow! This is super cool! Just the other day I was having a discussion with my husband that we should totally have two different white boards for our study space! This one is nice!
This is only one whiteboard but with 2 surfaces, works for us as we have two children and they both can use their own side
We are also home schooling because of Covid19 and this white board would be such a useful tool for us! Thank you for the article!
Yes it would indeed Nati, it is a fab board
