There was a certain conversational feel to early Twitter, with low character limits and no QT (or even RT). You had to engage. There were no thesis-length threads. It was “I have a sentence to add here” and there was a natural back and forth. I didn’t think about that until your post here.

Grade 7/8 here - yes, novels. Choice reads, book clubs, and read alouds. I was talking with a colleague yesterday about how we can’t use excerpts to teach broad character development and writer’s craft for large scale themes and plot structures.
