Twitter Assignment

For this first assignment, you will Tweet twice about the class reading by Sunday.

Tweet One: What's one thing you learned by reading "Three Hundred Years Hence"? (Save the snark!)
Tweet Two: What was one of the motivations of the rioters in the 1837 Bread Riot?

If you want to attract attention outside this class, use the hashtag #steinbeck.

Remember:

1) These Tweets are somewhat difficult to write because you have to say as much as possible in a short amount of space. You are allowed to write 'grammatically incorrect.' We just have to understand what you're saying. Use whatever voice you're comfortable with.

BUT!

2) This is a professional account and your thoughts and reactions should always be made with class rules in mind. This is a public account, even if it's private, because your classmates and myself are reading it. Stay focused on making claims about the book, although your Tweets will reflect, of course, your personal experiences and thoughts while reading.
