ARE YOU ON TWITTER?!?!
This year I am trying something brand new with my class. We officially have a class pet!!! A goldfish, named Pete, joined our classroom on Tuesday. Okay, okay… so he is battery operated and doesn’t require food BUT… I think he is PERFECT! Each week, Pete will “tweet” about the happenings inside room 203. If you are on twitter make sure to
follow him @203Pete
The students will be responsible for tweeting out for Pete– so be patient as they get the hang of it. If you are new to twitter, this is the perfect way to get started!
