============================

These days, there is a lot of choice in the way that we do things. We can use an electronic device to help with most things. In fact, these days, most electronic devices like smartphones and tablets are almost more powerful than laptops. My kids are learning to use electronic things at school, such as laptops, desktops, and iPads.

Sometimes I wonder if they will be able to write well or not! They are so used to just typing on a device. They use Google to research their school projects. When I was in school, we had computers, but we weren’t allowed to use electronic devices for school work! We had to go to the library and research in real books.

Of course, knowing how to use these electronic devices well is extremely important for their future, but I hope they can still learn to read, write and research without these tools, too!

Bye,
