Where’s the book?
Seriously, where’s the book?
What if the internet goes down?
What if all my students
don’t have a computer?
What about literacy?
Does it support ELL?
What if our teachers aren’t ready for this
kind of change?
It’s digital? So, no hands-on
activities?

Are you having trouble reading this? Is it making you mad, upset, angry? This is the way kids talk. Seriously. It is easy for
them. They love it. They love it more when you
speak their language. At least a little bit.
