Kidz Group Update

Hi everyone! We've just finished our meeting today (March 22). Sophie and Natsuko are finishing up their Voicethreads (I'll post links soon) and Jojo, Maya, Graeme and Christie were working on a script for Stone Soup.

Graeme pointed out that there are 5 Saturdays this month, so we are not going to meet next Saturday. That means our next meeting will be APRIL 5. Come ready to make props for Stone Soup and to help with the script, ok?

In the meantime, there is HOMEWORK. I'd like you to listen to every finished Voicethread -- that means not only the Voicethreads made by our group's members but also those made by the kids in Wakayama.

For each Voicethread, I'd like you to make at least 2 comments. One of the comments should be a question. You make a comment just like you did when you recorded your own Voicethread -- sign in to Voicethread, then visit this blog post to choose the Voicethread you want to listen to. As you listen, if you find a part that you want to ask a question about or make a comment on, then click "comment". You can record your question/comment using your webcam or your computer's microphone. (Click HERE to go to a web page that explains more about how to comment on a Voicethread.)

Voicethreads! Check out these links...

Hi everyone --

We are making good progress on our Voicethread project. Several members have finished. Check out the clickable links below to see the finished Voicethreads. (Any unclickable names are not finished yet... check back frequently for updates!)

For the next step, please watch/listen to EVERYONE's Voicethreads. As you listen, think of questions you'd like to ask the maker of the Voicethread or comments you'd like to make about their Voicethread. Then please try the comment function on Voicethread to record your question or comment. If you have trouble, please contact me (Christie). I can help!
