Podcasts

Podcasts are a good thing to share in the classroom. It beats the old fashioned lecturing style most students are used to. I think that different is good. It is good to change things up in the classroom. You as a teacher can only lecture so long or use to many powerpoints before your students are bored to death. Podcasts are very educational and can be used to teach without boring the students. I found some really good and interesting podcasts. Three of them would be: Grammer Girl, Just vocabulary, Hogwarts radio. Grammer girl would be good for girls obviously. It is not only fun but it also teaches about english and grammer. Just vocabulary could be used for a variety of students. It focuses on vocabulary building which is usefull for all grades. Hogwarts radio could be incorporated if the students were reading Harry Potter or any of the other books in the series. All of these could be used and are important in one way or another.
