@wolfiesfirsties Agreed! I often hear Gen Z say they wish cell phones had never been a thing because of all the negative impact. I believe in our and their generation! I think we will find a way to balance and make the best use of it. 🙌🏼
@wolfiesfirsties#retweet 🙌🏼 Exactly what I believe also! It’s about teacher judgement. I think as a whole district we are doing better at evaluating if tech is truly to enhance the lesson or just make it easier on the teacher. 👍🏻
As a parent, I worry about our kids eye health. As a youth leader, I worry about our kids mental health as so many (and I’m totally guilty) glue in to tech forgetting need to be together and some use it to purposely zone out. #balance#chillir2chat
A2. As everyone is saying we set limits. I don’t want our kids to remember us as always starring at our phones but looking them in their eyes and focusing in. Thankfully our kiddos get lots of exposure to tech at school. We try to make home as low tech as possible. #chillir2chat
A1. I love having so many options!I try to balance as much as possible! As I plan lessons I try to always evaluate what is the best method/resource to assist the kiddos in learning and retaining. If learning can be deepened by tech then I’m in. Substitution...no go.#chillir2chat
Our first #breakoutedu of the year! This crew broke out in 19 minutes! Incredibly proud of their teamwork, critical thinking skills and perseverance when combinations didn’t work! Way to go, Firsties! #webrokeout#chillir2#wecandohardthings
#growingourschema *When she mentions it wasn’t cool, she remembered a small fact in passing that it seemed about the same temperature as bath water. #littledetails
My little Hornets got the opportunity to make a FaceTime call to Israel! These firsties added to their #schema new knowledge of Isreal the Dead Sea scrolls and even got to see the Dead Sea first hand. This is a massive salt crystal! #virtualfieldtrip#exploretheworld#hornetsr2
Sept 11th... a day of learning and adventure in our room. We read 📖Sept 12th to remind my firsties it’s to remember history. We took a #virtualfieldtrip using @googleearth to Ground Zero and the Pentagon. We also wrote about HEROS after watching @iamkidpresident! #trueheroes
