My Project

I am in need of a functional laptop that I am able to use with my students at school but that I can also use outside of school when working on lesson plans, professional development, etc. I am also currently enrolled in a Montessori certification program and I need to be able to attend my classes and view lectures on a functional laptop.

At school, I would use my laptop to prepare lessons, PowerPoint slides, and Google slides to use with my kindergarten students.

I could also use the laptop for virtual parent conferences and email.
