[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any public school parents here have the ability to opt out of ipads/chromebooks in grades K-2? [/quote] Its an option on the PGCPS enrollment paperwork but when push came to shove the admin and teacher said no its not an option. Weve been lucky thus far to have K and 1st be low usage on 1:1 devices but still lots of use with the smart board. [/quote] When push comes to shove you have to continue to say no. None of my kids used a computer before middle school, and even then we limited it to big assignments and testing only. You literally just have to say no, nobody can force your kid to do an assignment on the computer. They just can’t. [/quote] What is your kindergartener doing after they tell the teacher know when the rest of the class is using computers? [/quote] Read a book, practiced handwriting, math worksheets, etc. In K I made sure they always had a busy work folder. The teacher just gave most assignments on paper though. It really wasn’t a big deal. [/quote]
