Where’s the book?

Seriously, where’s the book?

What if the internet goes down?

What if all my students

What about literacy?

Does it support ELL?

What if our teachers aren’t ready for this

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.
