After watching CNN Student News, my students and I decided that it would be great to have a

“West Point Weekly News” podcast.

So I created a script template in which they used to find and complete information about West Point: teacher feature, student feature, upcoming events, animal facts, etc. They would practice a few times and then we would record. We have been trying to

produce one weekly, but snow days and my curriculum meetings have made it a little difficult. But we are producing about every

two weeks. Enjoy an example!http://audreydell.podbean.com

Kids and VideosThe kids were SUPER EXCITED when I told them this month’s

book report would be a “BOOK TALK”

and I would be video-taping them. The cool part was that with Flip-share, I could then create a movie and send it off to

parents!!! The response from parents was great! You know many parents would still follow their kids to school if they

could. So this allowed them to be there, but not!The kids were given a rubric:

Create a poster about their book.Use two props. Cover the basic narrative elements: author, genre,

character, setting, plot. Be creative!

Here is an example! Enjoy! VID00019.mp4
