The super tiny pieces of chalk that are created as a piece of chalk gets used up. These chalklets are too small to actually use, but tend to accumulate in classrooms with chalk boards until they are the only traces of chalk that remain.
I wanted to write an example on the board, but that was impossible. There was no chalk to be found, only chalklets.
