Alyssa Rutherford on 21 Jul 11I am trying to think how this would work in a Spanish classroom. I wish I had instant access to technology like this teacher appears to have! -
Kim Fynboh on 21 Jul 11I agree! I wish I did too! -
anonymous on 24 Jul 11I think my school has one or two class sets of iTouches... Otherwise, it would be more likely that in a University class more students would have thier own iWhatevers to use...

Do any of you know how to work this site?

I just logged into my twitter page, put the hash tag into the search and watched the tweets load onto the page. If you like twitterdeck check out wiffiti.com

We don't "parse" verbs in Spanish... I don't really know what that is... conjugate? We also don't do much translating... I wonder how a person could use this idea in a more communicative way?
-
We don't even conjuage in Chinese!
-
old school - person, number, tense, voice, mood
-
Now I read it - I should have known it was a Latin teacher talking about parsing...
-
It could be like a waterfall of tweets... hablar hablo hablas habla hablamos hablais hablan. Teacher calls out the verb and tense and each student (or student group) tweets in the collection of conjugations (parses??).
-
It's like tweeting parts of that book 501 Spanish verbs.

Using Twitter for a 10 minute verb activity.

This is so cool! I know it would keep my students more engaged and focused on what could potentially be boring grammatical exercises. I do not currently use an on-line notebook and want to use Google docs more often. Lots to think about!
