I love Suzie’s idea of presenting bonus opportunities over the internet and her inclusion of facebook and twitter. Kids are constantly on computers, namely social networking sites, so why not use them to get in contact with your students. I feel like more kids would remember what their homework was if it was posted on facebook.
