In case you wanted data on why we don’t like students to have cell phones in our schools. John Hattie has analyzed effect size of allowing cell phones in the classroom. It is -.34. That is correct. Negative .34. That means a teacher has to use a strategy that is .34 effective in order to get students back to 0- meaning no growth in a years time. In other words, it reduces any teaching strategy used by .34 thus making effective strategies of .5 basically ineffective. Summer vacation has a negative effect size of .02, thus meaning your child’s cell phone has a 17 times greater negative impact on your child’s education does than not going to school for the summer break.
The average effect size is .4; this means a years growth per year of schooling for a student, average growth.
So this means that if your student has their cell phone on them constantly throughout the day distracting them from their school work and a teacher effectively implements a strategy that will help students make a years growth in a years time; the child that has the cell phone will only grow by .06 effect size in that years time.
In short students that don’t have their cell phones will learn at a rate 6 times faster than their peers that do have their cell phones on them.

LHS and LMS-next week is Red Ribbon Week!
Red Ribbon Week is an alcohol, tobacco, and other drug and violence prevention awareness campaign observed annually in October in the United States. It began as a tribute to fallen DEA special agent Enrique Camerena in 1985.
Biology students made their own cell models for our Cell Unit. Here are some of their creative ideas. Some even tasted pretty good as well!!
