Klipfel & Kids has entered the twitter world and boy did we start with a home run.  On Friday, we tweeted out our Red Sox beard picture and look what happened...

The official Boston Red Sox and 1st baseman, Mike Napoli, retweeted our picture!  We're taking this retweet as an official nomination by the Red Sox Organization as the Best Red Sox Nation Teacher and Class.

Not only will Klipfel & Kids be learning the twitter lingo but we will be using twitter as a way to tweet globally with authors, illustrators, other classrooms and maybe the occasional Boston sports team.  Please feel free to check us out on twitter: @missklipfel.

In other exciting news, Kate Messner, author of Marty McGuire posted a video answering questions from Global Read Aloud readers.  After skyping with our friends in Texas on Friday, we checked out Kate's videos and were shocked to hear her answer our question.

Check out Kate's Video here, our school name and class is mentioned in the first few minutes.  1st graders loved hearing Kate talk about revising and editing her work.  We revise and edit too, just like real authors!
