"BAKIT" List #30
BAKIT kulay GREEN ang BLACKboard?
Why are BLACKboards GREEN in color?
Brief Description
Bilang isang estudyante, lagi kong pinag-tatakhan kung bakit tinawag na BLACKboard ang blackboard samantalang berde o GREEN naman ang kulay nito.
As a student, I have always wondered why and would ask myself why blackboards were called as a BLACKboard when they are in fact GREEN in color.

My Smart Answer
Base sa kasaysayan, ang mga unang pisara o blackboards ay sadyang kulay itim o BLACK. Nang ginamit ang mga blackboards sa pag-tuturo at pag-aaral, ginawa nila itong berde o GREEN dahil ito ang kulay ng PAG-ASA... Para tayong mga estudyante ay hindi mawalan ng pag-asang pumasa sa eskwela!!!
Based on history, blackboards were first made BLACK. But when blackboards were used in school and for teaching, they then turned it into GREEN because it is the color of HOPE... So that we students wouldn't loose hope in passing our subjects in school!!!
