“I love this book. Most instructional technology books ignore K–2, and it is refreshing to find one that targets that age group. The authors incorporate the ISTE Standards for Students and show teachers detailed ideas of how they can meet that goal. I often have grades K–2 teachers tell me that their students just can't use technology, and my answer is always, ‘Yes they can!’ This book reinforces that it can be done. Kudos!”
