Leigh Farr replied to Janet Sager's discussion Detentions"I completely agree with you. Holding detentions in the library is sending a negative message to the students. The library is a place where staff should be encouraging students ago. Holding detentions in there is sending the message that that is…"
Stephanie Oswald replied to Janet Sager's discussion Detentions"I believe that we should not use the library as a disciplinary room. How are we supposed to excite children about reading when they now connect the library with discipline? Instead, those students who are not behaving should be placed in…"
Alex Pokorny replied to Janet Sager's discussion Detentions"I completely agree with what you said. I think that the library should be left as a fun place to go and learn.

"Three hours later---since I have a domain name for my website http://adifferentplace.org, I can open emails through google that are studentname@adifferentplace.org. How cool is that?"
Deb Jacobs replied to Janet Sager's discussion Student Email accounts"This is a real problem in my school--trying to fulfill the technology standard that calls for students to e-mail, and yet have a safe environment in which they can do so.....We tried the free version of Gaggle--but the ads created a problem. This…"

"I tried students' epal accounts just yesterday to get authorization codes for an app I wanted the kids to use and they never got the email. (I wondered if you had to authorize outside emails through epals). Anyway that disappointment has me…"
Melissa Smith replied to Janet Sager's discussion Student Email accounts"I am in the same boat. I am currently in the process of setting up the email accounts through gmail. But am still researching how to manage these. I surveyed my students and found the majority have email accounts on their own, or own that their…"
