Thank you kind sir.


Been watching her on Monday nights? She is amazing. Grandpa and mom must be proud of her. I am.

A friend of ours asked me a while back if I tweet and I told her that I did not, but I occasionally do toot.

Your avatar looks like it's tweeting... er, tooting.

Actually, believe it or not, I use it in my middle school classes. Students respond to me through tweets. We also use it for class discussions while not in class. Awesome tool!

This surprises me, not because of a teacher's use of tools that work, but because the teacher's and the students' identities are out there and available on the web.

It seems like student privacy and confidentiality, and personal safety regarding their physical whereabouts, would preclude the use of it for school.

Let us know how it works out for you. What's suppose to happen? You tweet her and she tweets you back? Are you just allowed one short line? Let us know what transpires (your tweet and her tweet).

Here is how I see it playing out VillagesPl. I tweet and tell her I enjoy the show and think she is a great actress and I live in The Villages.


She answers me back and invites me over to her house to meet her mom and grandpa the next time she is home in The Villages.


I say good. I can thank him for my house.


I am just kidding.

It's a good thing you said you're kidding because I don't even know who she is.

Who is Megan Boones?

Megan is one of the stars of The Blacklist...a TV show about an FBI agent who went to the "dark side," is now working for the "good side," and an agent he insists he work with. Megan is that agent....she is also Gary Morse's granddaughter, Jennifer parr's daughter.

Works really well. Students and parents sign a electronic code of conduct. I have not had one misconduct issue yet. I also conduct what is know as a flipped classroom. Students watch my "lectures" on their own time by way of webcasts and a web based classroom page. They often take notes with their phones by pictures or quicknotes. Pretty cool stuff. They also still write traditional research papers and all the stuff we all grew up with.

Good luck, Gracie! You never know what can happen in the twitterverse! I also think she does a great job on The Blacklist!

I Tweet, therefore I Am!
