Angry teacher

Upsetting on several levels, isn't it? I understand the teacher's frustration. He was obviously set up - and he played right into their hands. As teachers we need to remember that we are accountable, and we need to stay in control. Not only did this teacher do exactly what the kids wanted him to do, it's now on YouTube for everyone to see. Ahhh, progress......

It begins....

My daughter (3 years old) went to her grandmothers yesterday for a visit. When I walked in my mother's house I immediately heard "Mommy - come see!". Julia was sitting at the computer on her grandma's lap, clicking the mouse and moving objects on the screen. She was amazing! There truly is a technological revolution going on, and classrooms would be wise to jump in, head first, or they just might be left in the dust.
