chalkboards
Dusty writing surfaces
Chalkboards are smooth, dark surfaces designed to be written on with chalk.
Traditional chalkboards were made of slate; modern ones are typically green or black synthetic material.
Found in classrooms for generations, they've largely been replaced by whiteboards and digital displays, though the term persists: back to the chalkboard.
The singular chalkboard names one such surface.
