No matter how much our classrooms become inundated with technology, there will always be teachable moments that take place at the chalkboard. This \u201cready to write\u201d space gives both teachers and students the ability to instantly express, erase, and then express again.<\/span><\/p>

But, what happens when the classroom is virtual, and the online students can\u2019t see or write on the chalkboard? What happens when students are absent and miss the teachable chalkboard moments? What happens when you want to recall chalkboard notes after you\u2019ve erased them?<\/span><\/p>

Step 3:<\/strong> Boom. It\u2019s a whiteboard LOL.<\/span><\/p>

You can also keep the page tall if that fits the way you teach.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div>

While I can use the blank Kami page to mimic the traditional annotation of writing on a physical chalkboard, <\/span>I can also enhance my annotations with Kami\u2019s built-in whiteboard innovations<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>

For instance, if I\u2019m leading a grammar lesson emphasizing the importance of coordinating conjunctions, I can:<\/span><\/p>
