As surprising as it may be, most of my elementary aged students have cell phones and, on occasion, one of their phones will ring during the school day (You would be amazed at the inappropriate ring tones 4th graders will have). Of course, if a cell phone does ring or I catch a student with a phone, it is immediately confiscated or taken away. How fun would it be to encourage students to use cell phones as they are learning? Looks like a school district in New Jersey is already doing that...
