best for teaching
I am a college professor, and I use colored chalk often in class. The department typically has crayola chalk. Crayola colors will not erase from a board easily, however, and that can cause huge headaches. These chalks show up nicely on all boards that I've ever used, and the colors erase entirely with a single swipe of the eraser. My only complaint is that they are quite soft, and thus break easily. On the other hand, I think this is related to their erasability. If that's the price to pay, I'll gladly pay it. If you want your kids' driveway art to survive the next rain, use crayola. Otherwise go for these. They are the only ones I've ever found that erase satisfactorily.
Beautiful colors and attractive tray
I bought these to use on my menu chalkboard and love the selection of colors, i.e. medium blue, cherry pink, pistachio yellow, mint green, lavender purple, brown and white. The black plastic tray that they sit in is attractive to display and has a clear protective cover over it. I will order these again when they run out.
Teaching Essential
I teach all levels of undergraduate math course, and feel that this chalk (or a close equivalent) is a must. The colors pop wonderfully to highlight text or create easy-to-read illustrations. Not only are the colors bright, but they're distinct. Blue and purple are easy to tell apart, and orange is extremely distinct. Yellow and white look nothing alike. Finally, this chalk erases easily, and leaves only minimal ghosting behind.
The chalk does break easily, so you should be careful when writing with it. However, it's never posed a serious problem to me.
