@5th_with_ms.y: Bring back the basics!! Don’t get me wrong I love all the fun online learning tools when used appropriately but forcing teachers to use them and rely on them is not it… #fyp #viral #teachersoftiktok #elementaryteacher #teacherquittok

I teach 4th grade at a private school. We are 100% pencil and paper...no screens allowed at all.

They don’t need EVERYTHING on tech cause some of these apps are awful. But as always there is likely some sort of financial incentive for using these stupid apps 😭

I think this should include what we are expected to teach too. Teacher the basics then have students apply it

I completely agree. I've actually started doing more on paper than on the computer. I will say I had a group of students tell me they liked my handwritten notes better than a presentation.

Also maybe our third graders don’t need to be more versed in tech than their caregivers.

So much would be solved if EVERYONE went back to these! We learned technology and we turned out fine. Definitely the planner! I use paper and pencil in my class but I’m like the only one smh

Also, I’m convinced those Chromebooks are a big part of the reason their behavior is so atrocious

What about the technology nowadays kids have to learn it? My response to that would be we learned that pretty well. We didn’t have Chromebooks. Are we sure today’s kids even know how to write a complete sentence? Not trying to be mean, but just asking.

They have been knowing how to use technology from birth! I do think basic typing is needed in last elementary. If we are using computers for testing they need to know how to type productively. But yes please write that essay, do math in paper and do it the “old” way, what is this new math BS!!!
