Question for Judy!
This week during class, I had a student ask me why is the computer class called Imagine Tomorrow? I explained that the company Imagine Tomorrow was created by Judy Patterson who was a teacher. I then explained that she started this company using computers as a tool to educate children not only about computers, but about reading, writing, math, colors, shapes etc. She seemed satisfied with that answer and then she asked me one last question. Ms. Rachel - but how did she come up with the name? I did not have an answer. If Judy could share I would love to give my little friend an answer. Have a wonderful 4th of July everyone!

I recall my family and I were sitting around the kitchen table with a pile of books since there was no Internet to do searches. We would think of a word, and then would check the dictionary and thesaurus for other words with the similar meanings. It took hours and nothing seemed right. Then finally, my husband put two words together... he said IMAGINE... then TOMORROW...I said that's it! It is exactly what I am doing. I am imagining tomorrow... a time when all kids will get to use this technology for learning and understand the power of this technology to create new things.
