Magnetic board

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A magnetic board

The magnetic board is a board or plate on which objects are attached with magnets . In contrast to the pin board , the attached objects or notes on a magnetic board are not pierced and thus damaged, but are wedged between the board and the magnet and thus held in place.

Magnetic boards come in different sizes. In order to be able to attach magnets, the board is made of a magnetic material, as is the case with combination boards , for example whiteboards or boards with alternative fastening options (see picture opposite). Magnets are available without boards as fridge magnets, in this case the refrigerator housing takes on the function of a magnetic board.

Examples as a versatile planning tool

Magnetic boards can be used in many ways for planning or as an instrument for organizing notes. In law firms and tax offices, magnets can visualize the order planning and case processing in the various stages. Before computers penetrated the offices, magnetic boards two to three meters in size were also used for model planning in building planning. The magnetic board is often a visualized planning option in socio-educational institutions. Here, both educators and children themselves can represent group events, educational offers or even the people or groups themselves symbolized by magnets, plan and adjust and change them at any time by simply moving the magnets. Magnetic boards with magnetic letters facilitate the playful use of letters and names, as well as handling and recording numbers and quantities in class.
