Podcast


The students created a podcast where they recorded about a book they had read. This activity was differentiated as they read at their level and could successfully complete this assignment and chose parnters who had read the same book.
A "podcast" is a program (as of music or talk) made available in digital format for automatic download over the Internet.
Objective:

Three students created a podcast for a book they recently read. It’s a discussion on the book that was read. They talked about the book using guiding questions that were provided. They interviewed each other and talked about different parts of the book. 
This was a way to assess their speaking skills, and it was great to see their progress over the year.

The students researched and found information on various aspects of Mesopotamia and created an infographic. They worked in small groups and here are some examples of their work.
