Twitter is AWESOME!

I used to hate twitter!  I thought tweeting was for people that had nothing better to do.  Now I realize the power of short communication.  I realize that I can learn from people around the world without having to leave home.  If you have not tried twitter yet (although if you are reading this post, you are probably on it!) you need to now!  For teachers #edchat#edtech are just two of the areas where you can learn a ton in a short period of time. 
This morning I was looking for a fun way to intro my circulatory system unit.  On twitter someone posted an article which two clicks later led to this.  I now have a GREAT intro and a critical thinking piece to start off my unit.
