Many educators use twitter as a forum to share different articles, quotes, and educational tools.
Vicki Davis, author of the Cool Cat Teacher blog, uses Twitter to share her thoughts on how to navigate the use of new technologies in the profession. She does this by sharing articles about educational programs, offering tutorials on web tools, or even just voicing her passion for working with kids.
Because many educators use Twitter to share different fun tools, I thought I would add a second educator highlight.
EDUCATOR NUMBER FOUR

Giselle Santos uses Twitter to share different technology resources and gadgets that can play apart in education. Fun fact about Giselle, she lives in Brazil! Twitter, well and the internet in general, allows educators to connect to there professionals all over the world. Although a lot of her tweets are in Spanish, she does share some really good english resources as well. One of the ones that I liked from her account was when she shared this link: http://mashable.com/2015/10/16/childrens-coding-book/#wEPWjyxSHiqW "Colourful children's book introduces kids to the basics of code"
As my presentation group is doing the hour of code, it has been cool to see how other educators are getting on board. This children book use coding symbolize and concepts in introduce kids to the very basics of coding. I would like to get a hold of this book!
