Dear Kaia:)

This story was truly amazing to me. I think that a girl of Kaia's age exploring the desert like land is great. She is learning at such a small age and she enjoyed it. Her father, yet, was concerned about his daughter's relationship with nature and with that being said he also wanted to spend time with her as well. He read the book "The Last Child in The Woods" and was inspired. The father actually let Kaia take the pictures and they were beautiful. It is truly astonishing that a father and daughter are learning and bonding together. While they took action, they probably did not know that their actions would be recognized. Peoples comments were so positive and caring. I think that this so powerful that a little girl has caught the eye of so many people. If the technology was not there then people would not have had a clue of their aspirations. This type of communication is going to make us and we have to get with the program. If we do not empower our students to become technology literate then I believe that we will not be able to progress to a better future. I honestly think that they should promote more technology in the schools.

  1. It is not just empowering the kids. It is empowering and training the teachers that I am worried about!

  2. I agree that it was very amazing. The only thing is that not all children have access to technology like this little girl with parents who are willing to teach.
