It was the first day of school for my third graders today. Nobody even touched a computer. It's not like I don't have any, or I don't have any plans for them to be used :)
It's because of where my kids are coming from. We spent the day dealing with pencil and paper tasks, passing out textbooks, and all the routines that go with those things. That is what they know. I have to meet them where they are.
Maybe on the last day of school this year I'll be able to write a post titled "Not one pencil was touched" or "Not one book was touched".
It is entirely possible. I'm going for it.
And I bet the first day of school next year, we'll be getting right on those computers. It is changing that fast.
Oh yeah, my new class - they're wonderful!! You'll be hearing from them soon, at roomtwelve.com
