I finished a podcast with the little 3rdies today. Click here if you want to listen to it. It's not the most exciting podcast on the planet, but it's not absolutely the most boring podcast either. I enjoyed working with the peeps, at any rate, and they did feel proud of their work. I hope we get a few comments. The podcast is 7 minutes long, but it's worth it in a way. I mean, I know you'll never get those 7 minutes back, but think of what you'll gain. Think about what you'll gain and then tell me if you actually gained anything.

Bravo! This podcast was great! Did you use a different microphone? The sound quality was marvelous.
The kids were terrific. Their intonation, inflection, and enunciation was perfect.
I loved the way they delivered their lines.
And this podcast ended with a flourish! Wonderful!
And, I want to tell you that Wednesday Surprise has been a favorite book of mine for many years. When I first read it, I cried. I wonder if that happened to anyone in this group of 3rd graders.
And finally, you've made me aware of the Literacy Site, so I will be clicking on it.

Thanks, D. I listened again this morning and I'm warming up to it. The Mac has a great internal mike. It adjusts to each kiddo.
Is it spring break yet??????
I am literacy as well!
I can't wait to play it for the sophs. We will leave comments, fo sho.
Congrats on the podcast! "Come on, people, we need to read!" I liked that part. I clicked on the literacy site today too!
Well done.
Thx KC and JDoc. The thirdies haven't even heard it yet. Their teacher wants me to be there when they hear it and I have been running around like a crazy woman for the past 2 days. In the past two days I've:
written sleepover stories and made construction paper backpacks with 1st graders.
Learned about coral reefs with some kinders
Learned about broad leaf forest birds with some thirdies.
Podcasted with the thirdies in question
Interviewed 1/2 the fourthies about their literacy goals
and
facilitated 5 grade level meetings
and
a bunch of other stuff that's not super interesting.
So...tomorrow I'm heading upstairs to listen to the podcast with my buds. Then we're writing persuasive letters to other 3rd grade classes to get kids to listen to it. I love being a literacy partner this week.
