Twitter Experience

For my first Twitter Chat experience, I decided to get on and watch #sunchat, which happened to be discussing snow days various schools have, as well as ways in which schools make up for those snow days. I learned some great ideas that I would like to look into for when we have snow days here at LPS, which include giving students a reading challenge, providing students with a "Chilly Day List of Activities," as well as continuing assignments online with Google Classroom. 

As I got ready for the chat, I was nervous I wouldn't know how to navigate Twitter and respond correctly to whatever people were tweeting. For a first time user, it was very overwhelming.  I knew I could click on "view conversation" to see how tweets were connected to each other, but I wish I understood a little better about how that works and if there is an easier way to filter the topic/conversation you are looking at. It amazes me how fast it updates and how many people tweet at a time.  I was able to comment on a few tweets, but I think I messed up on one because I didn't add the #sunchat at the end....so not sure if the person saw it or not.  I definitely need more practice and need to learn more about how to use Twitter!!
