   My classroom has 30 Chromebooks with a cart to charge nightly. We use Google Apps for education extensively to reduce the amount of paper. Assignments are shared through Google Drive and Google Classroom.  
   Every child that is selected to  be in Entrepreneurship has the opportunity to establish a mock company based on their interests, goals, and academic skills. Students begin by dreaming about what life would be like in 5, 10 and 20 years. The classroom has Chromebooks for each student. They collaborate with a partner and create a power point based on these answers. Every word and picture for each slide must have a hyperlink that connects to these beliefs. Examples of the hyperlinks can be definitions, videos, images, or websites.  Students use Google Research tools which will automatically cite links for the source slide.
  Once this is completed, students are grouped based on similar interests and Academic Grades.  For the remainder of the nine weeks, students work together in the mock company to create Long Term, Short Term, and Personal goals. They will also learn about Gross profit, COGS(Cost of Goods Sold), Net Profit and an Income Statement. The final project is a Google Website using various tools such as Thinglinks, QR Codes, Kahoots, and Fakebooks.
