[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes. They get Chromebooks. Used to be that MCPS would not introduce Chromebooks until later, around 2nd grade. But now, the kids are on Chromebooks as early as K. The reliance on screens in MCPS is actually pretty bad in ES. Ask your kid to show you what websites they use and what they enjoy doing on the Chromebooks. It’s pretty eye-opening. Most of the websites are pure trash. [/quote] Yup lots of games. At least they remain at school this year. Last year we had to charge them nightly at home and the K teacher asked them to practice “reading” (i.e. look at the pictures and guess) the dreadful benchmark “books” on there.[/quote At our ES, they encouraged (pushed!!) kids to read on Epic versus reading actual book. What the actual F? I would much rather my 7 year old flip through an actual book. And the games are crap. [/quote]
