Thing 21 Podcasts

Podcasts are a fabulous way for students to do a book talk. They are easy using Audacity though it helps to practice a few times. I have also found that students MUST write a script first. It is intimidating enough for most people to record themselves, but not to have the necessary words to say is definitely intimidating. So to avoid that, just have a script or at least notes to use. I have posted two podcasts on my library page, but want to do more in the future. I have also used podcasts from Naomi Bates and Nancy Keene to share as booktalks in the library with students.
