    • Checking for pencils or other items before closing the lid of the Chromebook.
    • Taking the table or Chromebook back to storage and plugging it up. 
  • Put students' learning to the test! Get a tablet or Chromebook and do things you shouldn't and tell your students it's their job to identify what's wrong and tell you the right way to do it.

    • Draw or create a poster illustrating one of the rules.
    • Put on a skit illustrating one of the rules
    • Create a song to about good device care
