LLS: Podcasting Book Reviews

(Click on book cover to hear student podcast)

Barbara Eilertsen, LMS at LLS, has been working with students to create podcasts with students in grades 3-5. These podcasts focus on students recording an entertaining, informative and persuasive marketing pitch for a book they recently read. Scripts are prepared by the students, and music is added after the recording session. Using Audacity software as the recording tool and First Class as the publishing tool, students have created 24 "Book Review Podcasts." These podcasts are available to the students through the LMC Blackboard page. Here is the RSS Feed if you would like to subscribe:
