I have just started having them make podcasts of the vocabulary in the Health Science classes that I teach. Hopefully, we will start uploading these podcasts to our class website over the weekend.

We will also be working on developing a VoiceThread about our classes and our student organization to show at a Parent's Night scheduled for March 10th. Stay tuned, I will post our efforts here when we complete the project.

Like any school, we have an annual "Teacher of the Year" and "Paraprofessional of the Year" award. By way of learning how to use VoiceThread and to expose some of my colleagues, I developed a thread to encourage others to vote for our CT&E Secretary.

Here it is if you would like to view the VoiceThread. Please, I would enjoy hearing your comments.
