[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They don’t read actual books/novels in elementary and middle anymore because everything is laser focused on the shorter “passages” that appear on the standardized tests. They just read those 2-3 page short stories or articles and that’s it. [/quote] And they have no attention span. Last year I had a first grader who watched Tik Tok at home. [/quote] Easily half of my kindergarteners watch Tik Tok. They can’t wait to finish whatever we are doing (even if it’s fun) to get to the next thing. Their attention spans keep dwindling. It’s sad. Listening to a picture book is very, very difficult for many of them. I’ve never seen so many kids want to go to the bathroom so often just to do something else. [/quote]
