[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have been in 2 different elementary schools and I would say that there is far too much screen time these days. Reading/phonics is done on Lexia - must do Lexia every day. Math is frequently on Math playground or whatever that is called - where they consider math to be dressing your penguin or prodigy, which also lets kids spend an oddly weird amount of time dressing characters. Reading is often done on MyOn - not with real books. Indoor recess? Screentime! Lunch? Movie time! Having said that, I'm not sure privates are any better. There is a growing movement away from tech in schools now that there is more research about how it reduces learning. Unfortunately, it probably won't happen fast enough for my kids or yours. [/quote] THIS ^^. You nailed it. I can only hope that by the time I have grandchildren, the pendulum has swung back to no screens in class. The kids are so much happier when the teacher actually READS them a book.[/quote]
