I enjoyed listening to the Podcasts found on WGBH. They are a great way to give children information on topics that they are studying. Podcasts are an alternative to paper resources. Kids stay focused when the are offered different learning styles. They are a fun way to enhance listening skills.
The K-5 Podcasts offer a variety of topics for teachers to use in their classrooms. Some of the Podcasts I listened to were "Solar Eclipses", "Why Doesn't the Moon Fall Down", "What is a Planet", "Energy Flow in the Coral Reef", and "Observe Clouds". This is a good tool to use when searching for creative ways to teach children. The Podcasts are not too long and when there is video, they can see pictures. Another great reason for using Podcasts is that they are free and all teachers need as many "freebies" as they can get.
