Help me give my students laptops to complete classroom assignments with Web 2.0 Tools and online applications. The students are in need of a few replacements laptops after some technology damage during checking out devices to go home.

My Students
All of our students have made huge shifts to using more technology in the classroom and that came along with checking out technology to students. We checked out over 400 laptops with charging cords to students in order to complete their classwork at home remotely through Zoom with teachers.
Teachers and students alike excelled in expanding their 21st Century Skills and Competencies to use in their lessons.
Our goal would be able to provide working laptops for classes to use after COVID-19 in order to teach whole classes in every subject level using 21st Century competencies. The laptops would be used in the library for 21st Century Lessons and teachers would have the opportunity to check them out for their classes as well.
My Project
By receiving these resources, it will allow us to complete our class set of laptops that will be used in the Library for every subject area. Currently, I teach 4-5 days a week for 6 periods to enhance their 21st Century Skills and incorporate their classroom standards. For the next project, students (754 students in all classes) will be doing Book Reviews for the individual novels they read this quarter. They will record them on a Laptop with FlipGrid to recommend their books to other students.
