  1. Using cell phones in the classrooms Shavonne Ross 3/9/2009

  2. Pros • In case of emergencies • To do online polls • A good way to keep students connected • Like a small computer in the classroom

  3. Cons • Known to be a distraction • Bullying • Cheating • Texting during class

  4. My Personal Opinion • I think that students should be able to bring their cell phones to school depending on the grade they are in. I think fourth graders are responsible enough to know how to use their phone appropriately. There has to be guidelines set so the students know the rules and the consequences if they break the rules.
