Podcast Posting

Hey guys I can't figure out how to upload the podcast into the webpage. Any ideas?

Website

I added a few links to other pages to fulfill the requirements of 3 websites per person. I also created a lesson plan as my original project! :-)

Due Date

Is the Website due Sunday or June 26?

Web Site

I worked on the Seasons and Epal sections. Feel free to add more we need each page to contain information that was not given throughout the semester on our concept map. Be careful in changing the layouts of the page make sure you make the layout first then add information because it will give you a hard time if you don't. I made the concept Map larger on the home page as at first it was to small to see. I linked the WMU Logo on the first page. What is are final project for the students? I was thinking I would create a powerpoint for my original item based on four seasons.I am a bit confused of how we are supposed to post the standards for  that we used on the home page. Other than that I will continue to do my part. Its starting to look good!

Team website

Hey everyone, now that the podcast is done we need to start working on the team website. We need to come up with how we are going to create it and the lay out we want to use. How should we group the lessons, podcast, digital story etc.

Final Inspiration Map

Issue with podcast

I tried to email you both but the file with the podcast won't attach because it is too big. Our podcast is over 7 minutes long when it is only supposed to be 3-5 minutes. I think we need to shorten it and this will also help with the issue of emailing it to you guys. Chelsea's part is 1 minute 58 seconds long. Kelli's part is over 3 minutes long and my part is 1 minute and 55 seconds long. I think that we all need to shorten our parts so that the final podcast is no more than five minutes long. Let me know what you guys think.

Help...

Hey guys my computer still isn't working properly and I can't open the googledoc with the podcast script. Can one of you copy and paste it into the blog or email it to me so I can see it please? It would be very helpful! Thanks.

Sending Podcast

Hey guys just a little more about the podcast. Chelsea I received your email with the podcast and the music. Thanks for sending those. Right now my computer isn't working too well so I am using a different one just for the night. I was unable to open the podcast because this computer won't allow me to for some reason. I am going to look at the podcast first thing tomorrow morning. Kelli let me know when you think you will be sending me yours. My goal is to have podcast done by Friday so that way I can email to both of you for review, just to make sure there are no changes that need to be made prior to submitting the final podcast.

Revising Concept Map

I started working on our final concept map today.  I only have a few more days left with Inspiration so I have to finish it off soon.  I just want to make sure of a few things so I can finish.

1. Did we use all the terms that are listed under "terms"?  Are we missing any terms that you may have included in your lesson plans or videos?
2. Did we use all of the tools listed under "tools"?  Are we missing any tools that you may have included in your lesson plans or videos?
3. Is the E-pals section set up okay?
4. Should we still add another section that says region even though we have them listed under E-pals?
5. Do you see anything else that needs to be added to our map?
6. Any spelling errors?

This will help me out tons!  Thanks!

Podcast!

Hey everyone, we need to make sure that everybody's parts flow together before we begin recording for our podcast! So if you have a second go and check out the google doc.  I just finished up what I plan on saying for my part, but I got stuck on the concept map area because I'm not sure how we will tie it in with the next part.

Fixing Concept Map

Hey everyone, if  you have a second I need you to look at the concept map from the beginning of the project and compare it to your lesson plans.  Is there anything on your lesson plans that needs to be added to the concept map?  Are the things that need to be taken off the map?  Is our project idea still relevant to our assignments? Etc.  Thanks!

Podcast Script

Hey guys I was thinking that for the podcast script we should try to have it done by Wednesday or Thursday so we can all create our parts of it. I will combine the three together but I want to have a day or so to do it that way I can send it to you before the final podcast is posted so I can get your feedback on it if any changes need to be made. I added some more to the podcast script so read it over and let me know what you think.

Lesson Plan

For my lesson plan I decided to incorporate the  E pals. The students have recorded data during the winter and will input different types of weather they observed and also the other states into their graph.

Podcast

I added to the podcast script. Its a bit broad but its a start!

Podcast & Lesson Plan 2

Hey everyone!  We need to dicuss who is going to do what for our podcast.  We then need to create a script of what we are going to say and have it viewed by everyone.  We also need to figure out what everyone is doing for their second lesson plan so no one is doing the same thing!

For the podcast I was thinking about talking about PBL, what it is and why we are using it.  As well as talking about our topic and why it is important.  I can also talk about the concept map and maybe some goals we have for the students.  Where would you like to go from this point?

Also, for the second lesson plan I was thinking about having the students compare natural disasters or temperatures amoung various areas of the US.  I would like to narrow this idea down a bit more, but haven't thought of what I'd like to do yet,  I'll post more when I know.

And again we need to make sure thet everyone is participating in our project or they will end up being kicked out as our last member was!

Google Map

View Weather Comparisons in a larger map

This map gives directions to all of the areas our 3rd grade class will be writing to.  We chose four different cities, each in a different region of the United States, so that our students will be able to talk about the differences in weather all around the continent with their E-Pals.

Google Map

I created the map as well and emailed everyone. Post it someone after it has been looked over. I will be unable to so please post!
