#C6Learns 2017 Twitter Challenge
The C&I Department and DPDC are excited to announce the second annual #C6Learns 15-day Twitter challenge. The challenge encourages all Fox C-6 educators to share and connect with colleagues daily on Twitter for 15 days beginning Monday January 30th and ending Friday, February 17th with the purpose of sharing learning with colleagues across the hall and around the district in a virtual space to help educators develop a virtual personal learning network, or PLN, made up of like-minded educators.

How to participate
To participate in the Twitter challenge, simply post (at least) one tweet each school day between Monday, January 30th and Friday, February 17th based on the day's topic. Each day's topic will be tweeted by @foxc6pd in the morning. Be sure to follow @foxc6pd and #C6Learns to stay in the loop.
