1) Grab your laptop and go to Google.com

2) When a question is asked see how long it takes you to find the answer.

3) Think about all the useless content we teach students 1-5 grade.

• What does this say about what we’re teaching?
• How much of the content that we teach in grades 1-5 is useless to us in the “real world”
• Think like a 5th grader today: “Why should I learn this stuff when I can find it on google faster and when I need it?”
