[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not that it's needed, but here's a simple example of how a cell phone was helpful for me, a grown up, while teaching in a classroom. Perhaps I needed assistance in my classroom and my kids were reading quietly. I could text the office and ask for someone to be sent down. The kids wouldn't be disturbed, like if I had called on the landline, and we'd get the support we needed. No harm. No foul. Cell phones aren't the horrible thing some make them out to be. [/quote] Except it was disruptive according to your story. You illustrated the problem with allowing teachers to use their phones during the day remarkably well.[/quote] There is a serious reading comprehension issue. The use of the cell phone by the teacher PREVENTED disruption in the classroom. [/quote] You obviously didn't read her story. Try again.[/quote]
