A Surprise Twitter Secret!

WOW! We just got an unexpected surprise on Twitter. The author of our Book Study - Peter H. Reynolds sent us a Twitter surprise!! He read our Part 2 stories that we wrote after reading the story The North Star. He let us in on a really cool secret. Have a read at his Twitter message below:

Don't tell anyone, @MrsCiampaClass but I have written the first draft of the sequel to THE NORTH STAR #GRA14 http://t.co/S50P7gNq6R

How amazing that the author of some famous stories can read our tweets AND send us a message saying how there really will be a Part 2 of the story soon! We were so excited to hear of this special secret. We invited our principal Mme. Paradis to our room today so we could let her in on the surprise secret too.

What a great example of the power that Twitter has! It has already allowed us to connect with other classrooms on shared ideas. Now we've learned that we can connect with REAL AUTHORS of stories we are reading in class. Pretty neat. Ask your child all about this neat Twitter surprise we received from Peter H. Reynolds today.
