Big kids, little kids
A primary teacher who is involved in our TLLP podcasting workshop was sharing with me today about how she was starting to get her students into recording audio.
I teach junior, grade 5/6 students and I have little experience with the grade 1 and 2 set but I can see that it would be a challenge to get some kids recording while others were working. Donna (the primary teacher) solved the problem by having her grade 6 lunch monitors record her primary students during the lunch hour. The grade 6s felt important using the voice recorder and being the “big kids” and the younger students each got a chance to have their say. The topic was the weather. A simple start but it involved many students at their own levels. Big kids and little kids working together and it didn’t become an add on for the teacher.
Terrific!!!
