 19:39:29  csitterley -> Room 1: Absolutely Cheryl-I will DM it in twitter
 19:39:48  cheryloakes~Seedlings -> Room 1: I like that dip a cup into the river, a little at a time.
 19:40:09  cheryloakes~Seedlings -> Room 1: welcome sarahsutter, how is you r week?
 19:40:09  alicebarr -> Room 1: Hi sarah!
 19:40:15  wingsonwater03 -> Room 1: how did you begin making the connections to other elementary classrooms that use twitter as a classroom.
 19:40:29  cheryloakes~Seedlings -> Room 1: great question, we will get to it.
 19:40:40  cheryloakes~Seedlings -> Room 1: sounds like this is the story
 19:40:43  sarahsutter -> Room 1: Week going by quickly. Catching up.
 19:40:54  bobsprankle -> Room 1: hi sarah!!
 19:40:55  alicebarr -> Room 1: Me too
 19:40:57  sarahsutter -> Room 1: Such a great idea to have Deb on !
 19:41:04  cheryloakes~Seedlings -> Room 1: thanks sarah
 19:43:31  cheryloakes~Seedlings -> Room 1: Harvest Moon sandwiches are yummy.
 19:44:46  csitterley -> Room 1: Yay for the boy who was persuasive with his Dad-maybe he can be with other teachers as wekk
 19:45:11  wingsonwater03 -> Room 1: :D
 19:47:38  csitterley -> Room 1: The seatbelt example is perfect-my parents really never did wear those belts without reminders because they hadn't had them from youth
 19:48:09  cheryloakes~Seedlings -> Room 1: I like this description! baby steps and constant learning about netiquette
 19:48:33  alicebarr -> Room 1: It becomes culture then, so great for the younger ones
 19:48:58  sarahsutter -> Room 1: Think about the potential culture built if everyone started this early with these tools and netiquette discussions.
 19:49:09  alicebarr -> Room 1: I like how Deb had adapted her classroom to incoorporate technology in the mix
 19:49:40  alicebarr -> Room 1: Exactly Sarah, by the time they get to HS they will know all the good habits
 19:49:42  cheryloakes~Seedlings -> Room 1: Yes, it makes so much sense. We have the same conversation with 8th graders and HS'ers.
 19:50:29  cheryloakes~Seedlings -> Room 1: http://kidblog.org/room8isgreat/Ko/my-dog-backster/
 19:50:39  csitterley -> Room 1: Sorry-came in late-what grade does Deb teach?
 19:50:48  cheryloakes~Seedlings -> Room 1: Deb is a grade 2 teacher
 19:50:49  bobsprankle -> Room 1: 2nd
 19:50:51  alicebarr -> Room 1: @csitterly Grade 2
 19:51:02  cheryloakes~Seedlings -> Room 1: Deb teaches in Orono, ME grade 2
 19:51:15  wingsonwater03 -> Room 1: is "Elmo" the new "Zerox". Or does anyone say "document camera?"
 19:51:26  csitterley -> Room 1: Thanks Alice-glad to hear that-need  that for encouragement with my primary teachers
 19:51:29  mjgormans -> Room 1: at second grade it seems this type of integration would be good with reluctant readers
 19:51:41  cheryloakes~Seedlings -> Room 1: It does doesn't it.
 19:52:48  cheryloakes~Seedlings -> Room 1: 140 characters limits the writing required, so cool.
 19:53:24  mjgormans -> Room 1: with quick feedback
 19:54:49  Ernie Cox -> Room 1: i'm going to ask this because i can hear the voice of a middle school grammar teacher at my school ... "do you require [i]proper[/i] usage"
 19:55:11  cheryloakes~Seedlings -> Room 1: http://kidblog.org/room8isgreat/Ko/my-dog-backster/

 19:57:09  Ernie Cox -> Room 1: how do you convince parents and other teachers that writing without fear of correction is vital?
 19:57:21  cheryloakes~Seedlings -> Room 1: good questions, we will ask
 19:57:24  bobsprankle -> Room 1: great question ernie
 19:57:27  alicebarr -> Room 1: Great question Ernie
 19:57:32  alicebarr -> Room 1: Jinx!
 19:59:15  debwhite -> Room 1: Ernie~ lots of education about the importance . . .
 20:00:02  mjgormans -> Room 1: Also a way to use community experts as a resource
 20:00:20  bobsprankle -> Room 1: kern!!
 20:00:25  cheryloakes~Seedlings -> Room 1: yes, community involvement is a way to expand the classroom
 20:00:29  alicebarr -> Room 1: Yes would be a great way to connect with community
