[quote=Anonymous]Kids are bringing phones to school in early elementary?? We also moved to a different elementary in part due to screen use. The new one does use iPads but minimally - so far they have done one small research unit. And they use them in math for 25 minutes a day for a math facts app. DS is currently using it during the last half of math to work a grade and a half ahead. I have mixed feelings about it. On the one hand I’d rather they have zero screens in 2nd grade. On the other, working a grade or two ahead throughout elementary math will help him get into more advanced math in middle and high school. I was surprised that the regular math track tops out at precalculus in high school, which seems really low. I’m not a math whiz AT ALL and even I took AP Calc as a senior. [/quote]
