I will be able to use my SMART board with a current and fast laptop. Class periods are 50 minutes. I never complete a lesson because the school only has outdated and slow laptops. It is very frustrating. Therefore, I use the chalkboard. We are suppose to use our SMART boards, but it is impossible to use it with the laptops the school provides. Other teachers buy their own Apple computers. I cannot afford to purchase a computer this advanced. I am also on several school committees and ask others to present my ideas on their computers because mine is awfully slow. Our school logo is the butterfly. Please help our students in Algebra and Geometry go from slow caterpillars to quick butterflies! Thank you!
