I'm looking for a really good sale price on the thin dry erase markers. They tend to average at about $1.00 give or take a few cents. I need to buy them in bulk so I'll have enough to last the school year.
In my classes, we use the fine-point dry-erase markers almost as much as pencils. I work in a community where students (sometimes!)buy a set of markers, but they just don't replace them when they dry out. If they use them for drawing/doodling, the markers last even less time.
Also, if they do buy them, parents will buy whatever is easiest to find or cheaper, so students bring in the thick markers Since we do repeated multiplication/division quizzes those thick markers don't work when students have smaller spaces in which to write.
