All these posts about Twitter...must be something special about it.

I just wanted to give a shout out to 5 "Twit-educators" that I have decided to follow on my Twitter account (my follow button is on the right)!

1. @TalkWithTeachers-this is a guy who, according to his bio, "wants to improve the conversation in education."  That alone should be reason enough to follow, but what's more is he participates in Twitter chats and actively facilitates questions, acknowledges the presence of users and responds, retweets, or favorites tweets that are important.

2. @Edutopia-super cool account with loads of ideas for classrooms including lessons.  I could spend hours on this account (almost like my addiction to Pinterest).  This account posts articles to read, pictures, and great resources to incorporate into the classroom.

3. @JasonProff-I interacted with this user during my Twitter chat (see previous post) and I really enjoyed and agreed with what he had to say.  According to his account, he participates in a lot of different educational chats and always has something insightful to say!

4. @JamesonAPLang-it's pretty obvious that this user is an AP Language Arts teacher, which is one of the main reasons why I have followed her, but she also participated in the chat.  Upon further research, I realized that she hosts #aplangchat, a Twitter chat! #verycool

5. @thehodgenator-there are a couple reasons why I recommend this user.  First of all, her background picture is of Hogwarts, second of all she has some very good ideas and opinions about education, but...she also has this super cool blog found here!  It's all about books, and what more could a Language Arts teacher want?

Again, I highly recommend these "Twit-educators!"

Happy tweeting :)
