Answer:
This protagonist could have meant any of these two things by this phrase.
- In beginning, he could've meant that his grandmother used to wipe his wooden slate and store the yellow chalk with it. She used to get things ready before he left for school.
- Alternatively, he also could've meant that the yellow chalk on the wooden slate may have become tainted as a consequence of over-usage.
Explanation:
This protagonist's grandma had a strong personality. She looked after herself as well as her grandchild. She was accustomed to waking up earlier in the morning to just get her grandchild prepared for school. Meanwhile, whilst bathing the protagonist, she will recite her morning prayers inside a dreary sing-song cadence, hoping that her grandchild will indeed pick it up as well. Then she'd bring his "wooden slate that she'd already scrubbed and coated with yellow chalk."
