U.S. Map Student Lapboards
Make geography fun with the OptiMA™ Student Lapboard with a U.S. Map! Our handheld double-sided student dry erase lapboard features a colorful map of the United States on one side and plain white dry erase surface on the reverse side.
We carry two options for these lapboards. The first option has all the states labeled with their appropriate two-letter abbreviation. The second option has the states unlabeled to challenge students to test their geography knowledge.
These lapboards are offered in two sizes: 9″ x 12″ or a larger size of 11″ x 17″. Each design is sold separately to allow you to mix and match designs as you please. We recommend cleaning these boards with a soft cloth dampened with water or rubbing alcohol to keep them in mint condition. Our Opti-Wipe™ microfiber dry erase wiping cloth is perfect for cleaning any dry erase surface without scratching.

Student Lapboards in the Classroom
Geography is the study of Earth's physical features, topography, and human activity, as it affects and is affected by these. Geography also includes the distribution of populations, land use, and industries. The study of geography opens students' awareness of what is around them locally and globally and the interconnectedness of people, regions, and cultures with those places.
Our Student Map Lapboards are the perfect classroom tool for challenging your students' geographical knowledge! Students love the ability to practice their states or country knowledge with the labeled lapboards and then challenge themselves using the unlabeled version.
Student Lapboards can be used in various fun learning activities for your students to learn geography in the classroom. Hosting geography bees for your students promotes testing their knowledge while encouraging fun learning. Having students display their answers on lapboards allows teachers to check answers quickly and places less pressure on students who answer incorrectly.
These lapboards allow for learning and fun to go hand in hand. Students will be eager to start their lessons when dry erase is incorporated, making your classroom a fun, mentally stimulating environment.
