Second graders in Maine are Twittering to connect to others. This video (starts with an ad) shows how they use it in class. I think it is safe to say that none of us said, "At first, I thought it was just another instant messaging blog," when we were in second grade! Interesting comments from teacher and students.
The wonders of the Internet. I found this via the blog Ideas and Thoughts which linked to a video on Orlandoclicks, an Orlando FL TV station Web site (not that that is easy to tell, either). Looking for comments on the video, I used the TV call letters embedded in the video and ended up at WLBZ, a Bangor ME station. There I found the transcript of the story and the actual TV broadcast, with the anchors' comments before and after. Alas, no reader/viewer comments as of yet. I would like to see what "average" people think. What do you think? Does Twitter have a place in Grade 2--or any other grade?
