[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are there any parents out there interested in organizing around tech use in MS? My kid is already mid-elementary so while I totally support any effort to get tech out of younger grades (solidarity), I'm also looking down the pike to MS and would love to see more focus on physical books. Also if there are parents on here with experiences in DCPS MS regarding tech, what can you share? Our IB is Stuart-Hobson, which I'm enthusiastic about, but I've also heard from neighbor kids that it's a lot of chrome book use.[/quote]

I organized for more tech use in MS, because without apps, my kid would have learned nothing. The teachers have their hands full dealing with social/emotional issues and 7th graders who read at a 1st grade level.[/quote]

+1. I know the only reason my kid knows how to spell is because of Lexia, because he detests reading.

I don't blame your kid. If I had to just read on Lexia, I would hate reading too. [/quote]

So sad that kids don’t read hardly any books in school anymore. They just answer main topic and inference questions after reading short passages on Lexia. [/quote]

I bet the children of the tech bros read many books in their private schools though. [/quote]
