Tweeting

We are working on using Twitter in my classroom. We have started to do "Tweet Boards" and create character profiles from the books we are reading. My students and I are learning and making mistakes together. It has been a fun experience! Today we used character profiles and created ones from Letters from Camp. The kids were forced to think in a different way. They had to become the character and create a profile and a post as if they are the character...it takes their level of understanding to a different place.
