A Kindergarten Class Twitter Account opens up the World.
Matt Gomez, Kindergarten teacher in Plano shared how he uses Twitter to connect his class globally.
- He sets up a class twitter account at the beginning of the year
- There are no student photos, names, and the name of his account does not have his name in it.
- Followers only follow by permission
- He screens the tweets he gets
- He picks 2-3 a day for the class to read and talk about in the morning
- At the end of the day the class decides what they learned that they want to tweet about
- Many of the tweets have been the inspiration for his "Research Center"
- Here is a link to his slide presentation
This was a fun session in which several Ed Tech presenters came together to share useful and fanciful apps.
The title is linked to this session.
