would this be good for a classroom?

I use this item at the foot of my bed so our older dog (about 18 lbs) can jump on it to get on our bed. It is constructed very well and has room for storage. I am happy with it for our use. It shipped quickly and was extremely easy to put together. I have sat on it for a minute or two at a time but not for long periods.

I think it would be a great addition to the classroom. Lots of modifications are possible, including multiplication. The dice are also nicely nicely sized and could be used in other games. Also, with several sets, maybe with groups of 4 kids each, you could easily adapt the level of difficulty to allow different ability levels, each with a challenge appropriate to their skill base.

Depends how loud the classroom is I guess. I think they would suffice, but I only have them in a 15x15' room so they are plenty for this room. I'm sure your classroom is bigger than that. For the price, I am happy with them. That being said, they are very inexpensive. Amazon is pretty good with returns though aren't they? Might be worth a try. Hope that wishy-washy answer helped :) -Signed, Switzerland

I would say no. It would be awfully cramped with two people. Maybe two students? Even then, I dunno... find yourself a measuring tape and see :)

It is good quality but certainly not as good as the types that are in public schools. But it would do in a classroom.

Hi Bud,if it's for a pretty large classroom, I wouldn't recommend them, unless the students can keep really quiet.Besides, though they are called wireless, they are wirelessly connected to the computer, but not between them. There actually a short wire that connects the speakers, that would make it difficult to place them in different corners of the classroom.I use them for my desk, so for me they are more than ok, but the sound they make is not impressive anyway.You can check under the technical description of the product.I hope this helps.All the best,Lucy Hi Bud,if it's for a pretty large classroom, I wouldn't recommend them, unless the students can keep really quiet.Besides, though they are called wireless, they are wirelessly connected to the computer, but not between them.

It earases fine, but that will depend on your markers and how hard your kids press on the board. Yes it's perfect for homework but I do not know of any kid old enough for homework but small enough for this table. My 2 year old is already close to out growing it in size.

Hi Nadine, I wouldn't recommend it for teaching. It's a good size for a personal board, but I wouldn't go below about twice the size of this for teaching (I'm a TA at a university and let me tell you: there is no such thing as too big a whiteboard).

With two in college, I would say that these units would definitly do the job, as tablets ...especially with the USB port for an add-on keyboard. In the classroom the tablet works best, but I got laptops for my son and daughter because they also needed compose papers, and such outside the classroom with a keyboard and mouse. If you go with a tablet I would not go any smaller than a 10 inch.

It's great for a classroom. It's a two player game, so you could get multiple copies or find a way for kids to work in groups. You can also easily extend the game by creating your own versions of the rules.

I used it at the beginning of the school year in my classroom and it would occasionally buzz disrupting my lesson. Since then I haven't really used it.

Yes Jose, I think this would be great for school. Each section does not expand very much so if you have a lot of papers it will not work. It's made pretty sturdy so could last for awhile. Good luck.

I think it would work fine, I use it for taping lectures and it works fine. I think it will work fine for what you want to use it for.I am very pleased with it.Fred

It works really well in a classroom. Record what is being said and review it later.

I would think you use in class room with no problem. You realize that can only show 5in.x5in. at a time. That is the size of the opening of the show window.

I would not recommend trying to use it as a two person desk. It could be used for two people in a classroom type situation, not as a desk.

Should be fine for a desk area in terms of size, but does produce a wind that jets off in one direction (esp if turned on high) and can be a bit noisy for a quiet environment. You can always turn it facing away from any papers so they don't blow away. It's quite compact though and does a good job!
