Cleaning Dry Erase Boards

How do you keep your whiteboard, mini student-boards and dry-erase activity cards fresh and clean? I have heard so many tips from many teachers over the years - everyone seems to have a favorite method. 

Mine is adding a drop of eucalyptus oil to a soft cloth to give them a freshen-up once a week. Friday afternoon is a great time to do this so they're clean and sparkly ready for a new week.

I have heard that

  • baby wipes
  • rubbing alcohol
  • vinegar
  • hairspray can work too. 
Always conform with your school administration or principal what is preferred for your school!
