*or at least as easily as we have.
This post is probably a follow up to A Year on Twitter. It is certainly something for anyone hoping to Bring a Teacher to Twitter to share. Below are things we've discovered on Twitter over the past three years and now use in our Key Stage Two classrooms:
Apps, apps and more apps - (@AppyMail, @ebd35, @TheiMums, #appFriday)
There are many users sharing app ideas, particularly highlighting price drops (some of them even use Android). Most of the apps we use have come from Twitter suggestions. #ThanksAll
Geography & History Encyclopedia - (@simonhaughton)
An easy to use, straight forward, online encyclopedia for children to use. #ThanksSimon

Take a look at Peter's example or one we used for inspiration and explanation. Children complete online. Offers an assessment opportunity. Download responses as spreadsheet file. #ThanksPeter

QR Codes in Reading Journals - (@tombrush1982)
We don't have positive postcards - so we adapted a little. When children's work is published online, a QR Code and accompanying TinyURL is stuck into their reading journal for parents to see. #ThanksTom

QR Codes Embedded in Pictures - (@ICTEvangelist)

VGA switch - (@JoeDale)
In assembly we often have two or more laptops on the go. The swapping was, well, less than seamless. Now it's smooth, crisp and highly professional. We got one for about a fiver online. #ThanksJoe

3x3 Home Learning Grid - (@tomhenzley)
Look at the blog post. We've enjoyed using them, so have the children and it's something a bit different. #ThanksTim
7puzzleblog - (@7Puzzle)
Daily maths puzzle to get your children thinking (and more). #ThanksPaul
So, there you go. Have a look at those. Did you already know about them? There's more too. This is just what came to mind. As a disclaimer: We're not saying the above were the originators of each idea or claim to have invented them - that's who we saw Tweet it first (they informed us about it).
