Thank you to Mrs. Vassiliev’s grade 7 life science class for creating the first set of podcasts on this blog! It all began with a conversation about kids gravitating to fiction, often missing out on reading the interesting nonfiction books on our library’s shelves. So, Mrs. Vassiliev and I developed a unit that allowed her life science students a chance to choose a nonfiction science book of their choice, interact with their book, and create a podcast review of their book. These podcasts are now available on their ESPN: exploring science publications network page under the “classroom blogs” tab above.
The students in Mrs. V’s Life Science class hope you listen to their podcasts, and of course, share your thoughts on their page!
