My Project

Pagers are a silent way to alert us that our table is ready at a restaurant. This same concept is one I want to implement in my classroom! Students would be given a pager and when it is time to meet with a teacher their pager would go off alerting them that it is their turn!

Calling students over during small group time can be disruptive to the rest of the class; these pagers allow a non-disruptive way of getting the student's attention.

This also helps me, the teacher, with the organization within the classroom. Instead of students continuously asking if it is their turn yet, they will know when their pager goes off!
