Thing 19

Social Networking

Teachers need to be social too! I think that  social networks are ways to stay in touch with family and friends. It is also a great place to have discussions and communicate with other teachers to build a little learning community. Having socail networks as a teacher can be a wonderful thing because it can get parents more involved. It can also be encouraging because you can talk about how good your students are. When they see their names and their photos with positive comments about them, they will be happy and excited. Social Networking could be useful for helpful student and teacher conversations.
  I am a member of Facebook, Twitter, Project Playlist and TeacherPop. I found TeacherPop very interesting and a great place to post blogs about new ideas that I am using in my future classroom or just have converations with other teachers.
