We are ready to have our first Bring Your Own Device day on Friday, November 7th. Students are invited to bring in a phone, iPod touch, tablet, or laptop... as long as it is able to access the internet. We will use these devices to enhance our learning experience in social studies and science, to read new stories and articles, and to discover new ideas.
A permission slip was given to each family at Back to School Night. I still need them back from several families. If your student is missing this form, you will be receiving an email this week with the form attached. Please print it out and sign it. Your student can bring it to school with them. Any student who does not have the form returned by Thursday, November 6th will not be able to bring in a device the following day.
I'm looking forward to starting this BYOD process with your students. This first day is the beginning of many more to come, if the students use it responsibly. They are very excited to begin!
