Mrs. Gamble's Classroom Edit display name

I have a large class of over 30 active nine to ten year old students. We live in a rural community that has a lot of middle to lower income families. Many of my students have been raised with game systems and technology as a part of their everyday lives. Theses systems are where they spend a lot of their free time since the majority of them come from single parent families, or families where both parents work. Technology has become the go-to daycare. With that in mind my students often have difficulty adjusting to the pace of a classroom. They have trained their minds to multi-task and need an outlet for their excess energy or thought processes.
