Twitter Thoughts

This just in: Twitter is a great way to practice short reports and lead writing! The last three posts have helped me present newspaper stories in a short and concise way. As I browsed my classmates twitters, I came across quite a few that presented their leads/ short reports well.

Jennie's twitter, in my opinion has great leads. From reading the list of leads, I got an immediate understanding of what the article was about. Her summary leads are concise and are specific. This makes it easy to understand each post. Her layout is also visually appealing to the reader.

Christina's twitter also caught my attention. The verb usage in her short reports/summary leads is strong and makes the stories appeal greater. Lastly, Tamara's twitter stood out to me as havinf a different, more creative element. Her leads are worded in a more creative manner that still is able to explain what the article is really about. These creative, worded leads gain the reader's attention and still are able to get the main concept of the story across. All in all the twitters were a pleasure to surf through and can really get someone hooked!
