The Brainy Bunch uses Twitter to keep parents informed about what we are learning at school. During our daily afternoon meeting we review the school day and write a tweet together. Some times we have time to write more than one. We also use Twitter for announcements, reminders, etc. Students are allowed to write tweets at school or at home using our class account. The tweet should be on an academic topic and include their pseudonym (It's on their take home folder and ends with BB.) Students should never post their name. Twitter has become a very useful classroom tool but it that is not it's original purpose. Therefore, student use of Twitter should always be supervised.
