Often I'm reading on my phone, and I think, "Oh, I'll say that later when I have a keyboard." Nope. Validation matters!

She is an experienced kinder teacher who will now be teaching first grade for the first time. She had never explored Twitter, so I spent an afternoon getting her set up with an account and helping her find some hashtags to check out and folks to follow. I'm excited for the first grade support she will find and for the growth that is ahead for her!<br /><br />I'm impressed that you have moderated a chat already.

Once you just give it a try (reaching out to ask a question, reply to someone's comment, participate in a chat), you'll realize that great people are out there just on the other side of your computer screen! :) It's opened up a whole new world.
