Let them take them home to practice. What else? If that means buying every child a "smart board" of their own... there you go.

Is it an electronic writer? It has memory. Save problem solved.

As I said, these issues can be handled by electronic devices. Will the kids want them? Make them attractive to the kids (ask Disney or Nickelodeon for pointers), and they will cherish them. It does mean learning some new habits, and possibly customized devices for that task (small, durable, cheap for young students). But the problems are not insurmountable.
