Tech Task #3 - Connecting on Twitter

For Tech Task #3, one of the components is to follow 5-10 new people on Twitter. I decided to follow more educators and teacher communities. Here is the list of the most recent people I have decided to follow and why.

@SmartEdServices  This account tweets teacher tips, resources, and tricks to use in the classroom. They also link to their website where you can find teacher resources and other helpful links. 
@ecce1 I wanted to follow Barb Mathieson as she has some good tweets and participates in Educational twitter chats. I also like that she is passionate about ECE and Technology.


@KarenNemethEdM Karen Nemeth has a passion for technology and  early childhood education as well as dual language learners. She also participates in a #ECETechChat which I think would be a little controversial but interesting. 

@mpowers3 I followed Margaret Powers as I enjoyed scrolling through her tweets. She helps teachers integrate technology into their classrooms and also participates in different ECE and technology twitter chats.

@astrang I enjoyed reading Anita Strang's tweets as well as her blog. She is a Canadian Elementary Special Education teacher who uses Ed Tech to differentiate. She shares some great thoughts and links.

@TWRCtankcom I followed Julie Niles Petersen because she has many good tweets and posts great, helpful links. She also has a wonderful blog dedicated to teaching reading with helpful resources.

@cubeforteachers Cube for Teachers tweets K-12 classroom resources that are free! They also tweet some interesting articles for teachers.

  1. Interesting choices, i can't say i follow any of these folks but might be persuaded. Adding the photos as you've done makes this post really stand out. You're really rockin' the visual side of this blogging thing. Keep it up!
