My classroom currently has five iPads for students to use. My students absolutely love the apps that are available to them. The apps enable them to practice skills and share their learning in a digital format. However, with 25 students in a classroom and only five devices, my students' time on our devices is limited. By adding a Chromebook to our classroom, my students would not only have an additional device to use for practicing science and math skills, but they would also be able to use additional programs from the Google for Education apps like Slides and Docs. With this new tool, my students will be better able to share their new learning. I am envisioning Slide presentations for their peers, Docs will be used to type paragraphs, and even Forms can be use for our survey and graphing math unit! The sky truly is the limit when adding Chromebooks into the classroom.
