Today, one of our local counties (one hard hit by this pandemic) announced that they will not be returning to school until February. Many of the others have already said they will start with remote and do a phased-in approach and not necessarily returning fully until November. Most likely returning the learners who need the most adjustment or in-person support and moving down the pipeline.
We were lucky to have devices at home and extra devices from school to support their learning. But as we think about the fall, I am wondering whether or not we should invest in another Chromebook or laptop.
Here are a few deals that I found for touchscreen chromebooks.

I don’t know about you, but I thought we had enough devices in the house a few weeks ago. For a family of 6, we have 1 Desktop Computer, 1 Laptop, 1 Chromebook, 2 iPad Minis, and 2 Kindles. Plus 2 work laptops. I thought we were good with technology until everyone was on zoom calls or Google Meets at the same time and 1 of the iPad minis couldn’t support some of the google classroom apps. So I started looking for deals on touchscreen laptops. If your school hasn’t closed for the rest of the school year, it looks like we will be home at least until May. Some schools provide technology, but some do not. So here is what I found:
- Acer Chromebook R 11 Convertible Laptop, Celeron N3060, 11.6″ HD Touch, 4GB DDR3L, 32GB eMMC, C738T-C7KD
