This was interesting to use.  I think that it is neat that you can record and post it so that parents could stay up to date on what is going on in their children’s classrooms.  I think that it would be a great way to post quick information that you need to let parents know.  I think that pod casting and vod casting are so cool.  There are so many things that you could us it with in the classroom.  I could definitely use both of them.  Some ideas to use vodcast is reader’s theater, morning news to show during calendar time, weather broadcast for calendar time or during our weather unit.  I would also like to use it for the all about me unit i do and interview students about their interests to use to introduce each student at the beginning of the year to the class.  I would also like to use it to interview staff in the school that we meet on our beginning of school scavenger hunt.   This would allow students to see what each staff memeber such as PE teacher, music teacher, principal, etc.  I think students would be able to connect with the purpose of that person in our school before they interact with them.  There are so many uses for this and I would really like to try it out this year.
