THIS WEEK AT CHS (March 2-6)

Communication with Twitter

Sign up for Twitter today...www.twitter.com

Between the weather and the many school events, Twitter is the "go to" means of instant communication. Additionally, if you "turn on notifications" for someone you follow -- the school tweets for example -- the tweets will pop up on your phone like a text.

Additionally, Twitter is a great place to access professional articles and blogs, for education especially.

If you need help setting up notifications on Twitter, I would start with your sons and daughters. They know every aspect of Twitter. If they are stumped, then send me an email at foland@cantonma.org
