Collaborative learning comes to life with the Spin & Write Pyramid! This rotating, four-sided, dry-erase board lets students of all ages collaborate, game, share ideas, sequence, and so much more.

Each dry-erase side is 10.875” high and 8.5” wide at the base. Made of injection molded plastic with an easy-to-clean, no ghosting, wipe-off surface. Each dry-erase triangle has a color-coded frame in case you want to keep track of the action, assign a color to a student or categorize. The four-sided board smoothly rotates and has a braking mechanism for those times when you want it to be stationary.

The Spin & Write Pyramid ships unassembled and the components snap together in seconds. Includes simple, no-tools-required assembly sheet and an idea guide that includes some of endless math and language arts teaching possibilities.
