The month of February is “I Love to Read Month”During the week of February 23rd, our class will
Read Electronic Distractions Away.
This means that during this period, (not including the weekend) students will be asked to eliminate all of their electronic devices in their lives
such as T.V., hand-held gaming devices, Play Station, DVD players, and so forth.
Students will be asked to
read, at least, 30 minutes per day avoiding all electronics.
Students will use this opportunity to raise money for an organization(s) that we will choose. Students will have to keep a daily log and request that their parents sign their names verifying that they did not utilize any electronics for that day. Last year’s class raised $900+ dollars for Bigfork Ambulance.
If you have further questions, feel free to call me or post a comment!

hey love the site
ReplyDeleteMr. Pierce I love how you are encouraging more reading and less mind numbing television. Although sometimes it is nice to zone out completely while staring at the magical glowing box,our children benefit greatly from a grand adventure with a fantastic story. Thank you for everything that you do for our children.
ReplyDeleteIt was hard giving up electronics.But it was worth it.
