one device is an online classroom that
can be taken home or anywhere. Parents
can also be involved in their student's
education. It is a great technology
introductory hardware for all students.

CHROMEBOOK IN
THE CLASSROOM

Students will be provided with their own

assigned Chromebook through their school.
They will receive a log in and password to
unlock the device. The teacher will provide an
educational software and a dedicated time for
the student to use their Chromebook. Students
will be assigned interactive games and
activities to further enhance the lesson plan in

involved outside of the classroom.
