Learning through Listening

This past week I have been working on my podcast. At first I had no clue what to create. My kids love to listen to books on tape. They love the listening center when they have to listen to tapes and do what the direction tell them to do on the cards that are provided. But none of that would work for my podcast. I wanted something that would be helpful for them to use when at home. Then it hit me. I should make a podcast with our alphabet and sounds. In our district we have have a specific word associated with each letter. The kids must memorize the letter, word, and sound for each letter. Many of my kids have them memorized, but when they say their sounds they do not always say them correctly. If they had a podcast to listen to while they practice they could hear the correct way to say the sounds. I can't wait to see how it works!
