DHMS Technology Use

How much do the students use an iPad or Chromebook throughout the day? We are at a feeder elementary and I feel like there is a lot of screen time, but maybe that’s because the one teacher has so many kids that need hands on help so let’s the iPads occupy the on level kids? In middle school all kids have a certain level of competence so I assume there will be more lecture, maybe real books?

There are definitely hand written worksheets, but they have their ipads with them all day and use it a lot. A lot of homework is on the ipad as well, or at the very least has to be submitted through it (i.e. they take photos of the hand written assignment).

There are no textbooks that I've seen. They do read "real" books in Disciplinary Literacy (AKA reading, which is only a 6th grade class).

Math doesn’t use a text book? Math problems should be worked out on paper.

What do you novels are only in 6th grade? I assumed they would reading to kill a mockingbird and Shakespeare by 8th grade?

Math uses IXL and Delta math to assign problems. Lesson videos are posted on Canvas. No text books. No paper. No partial credit. It's definitely not how we learned math.

In 6th grade Reading class my student is reading a book called Google It about the founding of Google. He's really enjoying it, but it's certainly not a classic.

Algebra has a textbook.

In pre-algebra, my child says the teacher makes them do it on paper to go along with their quizzes and tests. He makes them take a picture of the work with their ipad to turn in with the test.

Same at DHMS.

Kids have to submit work on paper for quizzes and tests on paper. About half of the homework is paper and half is IXL/online.

They take notes on paper.

Literacy: reread the comment. They are reading the Google IT in the 6th grade, not the 8th grade.

7th grade at DHMS they just finished the Outsiders. Most of English is on paper. They each get a copy of what they are reading.

Math has a textbook that comes home with your student at the start of the year. But homework is iXL. Math is a mix of paper and iPad. As long as your child starts with pre-algebra in 6, they will be at least a little challenged.
