Yet in our schools… • According to a July 2012 study, 56% of parents of children ages 8 to 12 have given their children a cell phone.  The percentage goes up with age.  Time for Kids, September 2012. • But Only 47% of schools allow their students to leave their cellphones on silent.

Attach that QR Code to the work in the hallway. Give your students time to hear other students talking about their work • There’s also this idea… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ayW032sKtj8&list=PLEC160E1EE3D31F96&index=4 • Or for the younger grades, there’s this…. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_IY52fnG-c8 • And then there’s this… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VPwzCF0zEI
