I hope you don't mean you want to point it at things in a classroom!!!

The reflection of these things is amazing!

I only use a 10mw and the reflection off walls it extremely bright. It still hurts my eyes when it bounces back inside the house (accidentally did it a few times).

If you intend to use one inside a classroom, may I recommend an ordinary Red Laser Pointer which is designed for indoor use.

I've never heard of an 'IR filter' in a Green laser pointer
