Due to the fact that 99% of the teachers are okay with this rule and allow the students to play on their cell phones once their classwork is completed, my kids are constantly checking their phones for messages from the students in other classrooms. I am in 8th grade, would it be a good idea for me to set up a station on the back wall where the students have to place their phones until it is approved by me for them to use them? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I feel that this can be a good and bad policy. I feel that the constant use of their devices and technology is not acceptable as children need verbal and social interaction still. But i also feel setting up a station where the students have to place their phones is a good idea as long as it is secure and no one can touch or mess with anothers device.
