Facebook

I love facebook I think it is a great way to network. I have concerns about teachers using this as an extension of the classroom. I think that students should not be encouraged to spend more time on computers at home. Children are already always wired to computers, video games and TV. Don't misunderstand me that I think all this technology is great and can help in many ways in the classroom. But I feel that we should encourage students to use time out of the classroom to play outside and away from TV and monitor screens.

  1. I am curious about facebook, but have not had the time yet to check it out. My two daughters and my son all use it. I think it has a lot of advantages if used properly. I agree that kids should be outside playing more and not sitting in front of tv screens or computer screens all the time. It is a challenge for me sometimes to get my son, who is 10, to go outside and play. Darlene
