Getting Ready For Monday #sol15

#sol15

My favorite part of the weekend is now 8 p.m. Sunday evening. It is the time when I get to sit down at the computer, in the comfort of my bed or dining room, and chat via Twitter with fellow educators across the state of Oklahoma.

We have a unique community in #oklaed, in that we have more than just the Oklahoma educators involved: We have educators from across the country, parents who care about education in our state, education students who are preparing for their future careers, and actual public school students who are concern about their futures.

I am very blessed to be a part of this community.

  1. I love the connections we can make with Twitter. It’s great that your community stretches beyond educators in OK and encompasses parents and students, as well.
    Michelle, welcome to the Slice of Life community.

    1. Thank you, Ramona! I would have started my Slices of Life sooner, but was sick on Saturday and Sunday. Better late than never, though!
