=Teacher Created Podcasts:=

I am creating a number of short podcasts that will explain how to perform basic operations in mathematics. These podcasts will be posted on our classroom blog so that they will be available for students to access if they need help with their homework. Here are a few examples of our sure to be ever growing list of help topics.

Student Created Podcasts (Vodcasts would be optional)
Students in my 5th grade class will be creating book review podcasts to promote reading in my classroom. These podcasts (vodcasts would be an option) will be posted on our class blog, so that all students and parents will have access to these reviews. This will hopefully open students eyes to all the great books available for them to read.
