17 - It's good for banging your head against when frustrated. It makes a big noise and doesn't hurt so much.

18 - A place for students to write homework answers. Then you can verify the answers are correct and let the students check each others work. Students will then have done all of the work - writing the answers and marking the homework
(In all seriousness, it's good for them to do this not just you the teacher all the time.)

(19 - my hands don't get chalky.)
(20 - my clothes don't get chalky.)

To the next person - the last 2 aren't really uses but votes for a whiteboard, so choose to count them if you wish. You be the judge.

21 - You can post the daily schedule so the students know what to expect each day when the get to class.

22 - You keep track of students who borrow classroom materials. Have them sign their names, what they borrowed and when it's due back. Then, when they return it, they can erase their name. It's a great reminder to them to return the materials without you having to ask them about it every day!

23 - You can post daily challenges such as a grammar, vocabulary or critical thinking challenge that students can either answer on paper or the first one to write the correct answer on the board wins... whatever: pride, points, stickers.

24 - You can 'block off' a space for the students to write their own challenges, questions or comments to you -- can they stump you? (You'd probably want to be proactive and set up some ground rules such as no profanity, name-calling, questionable materials, etc.)

25. You can use it to see which of the 37 marker pens actually works, as you can't throw any of them away 'cos the director doesn't like it.

26. Write up common mistakes from the homework and get the class to do group corrections.

54. I draw a simple picture showing the weather and every time at the beginning of the lesson ask them "What's the weather like?" I they still don't know the vocabulary I tell them and ask them to repeat. (also do the same with the date and day of the week)

55. Write " the disappearing word" - a long (if you are not in the mood short) word that you slowly erase, letter by letter, every time they misbehave.
