During the first term, 6th class have had the opportunity to learn podcasting skills from Peter as part of the Creative School’s programme. The children wrote an article with the guidance of Peter and then edited these to make them more suitable to be read as part of a podcast.
During the podcasting process, the children learned many different skills. They learned how to record their voices, ensuring that there voice waves remained within range; how to alter the tempo of their voice to ensure clarity when reading; how to add sound effects or music to the background of their podcast and add introductory and concluding jingles.
The children also had the opportunity to design their own artwork to match their podcast. We learned so many skills and look forward to having Peter come back to visit us later in the school year.
