Podcasting - a whole new way of reading to students! More and more teachers are using podcasting in their classrooms. A podcast is an audio reading of a book that incorporates music and sound effects to allow the students to feel more immersed in the experience of the story. They can use what they hear to heighten their understanding of the story as they read. Teachers can easily make their own podcasts on GarageBand or they can download other podcasts online to use in their classroom.
