My Project

Chrome books are the tools of the trade in school! Help my students, as they work throughout the day, have a charged chrome book.

Many classrooms run from a technology standpoint as they move through lessons and learning.

This tool is essential for students and they often come without charging their computers. Classroom electric plugs are limited and the use of extension cords would help immensely.

Batteries and a time clock will allow students to use wireless mice and be aware of the timeframe to complete lessons. All of these materials would help to make my classroom more efficient for student use!
