Screenagers

 My school district paid for a group viewing of the film Screenagers a couple of years ago and during the student-only showing (parents had an evening viewing) the students howled with laughter and derision and the "concern" the parent had for her daughter's use of her smartphone. 

This week we will have a showing of Screenagers: The Next Chapter and there won't be any of that howling at the screen that we had at the middle school. Instead, parents are invited to take advantage of a special pass to stream the video onto their home systems. 

The issue of appropriate screen time will certainly be something you encounter as a teacher. If you get a chance to see the video, please do.
