podcasting

· Students will be able to learn how to create a podcast
 * Grade Level: ** 2nd grade
 * Unit: ** Podcasting
 * Assignment Type: ** In class (computer lab)/ Homework
 * Time Frame: ** 1 Hour
 * Lesson Objectives (SWBAT): **
 * Description of Lesson: ** I will explain to the students that they will be creating their own “radio show” in the form of the podcast. I will show the students my example of a podcast (below). Since using Audacity is a little to complicated, I will tell them that they will be using "Vocaroo" to do their podcast.
 * Assignment: ** After listening to my podcast, students will create their own. They will be using "Vocaroo" for this assignment. In the “radio show,” students will be required to say the date, what the show will be about, and their opinion about reading. Students may also include music or another student in the class to be their “guest.”
 * Technology Used/How it Will Change Leaning Environment: ** Podcasting. This is a fun way to show students how an assignment could be done rather than just doing it on paper. Students will get to use technology to record their voice and will also have fun making their own “radio show.”
