Students all over our district have been researching, writing, drawing, painting, cutting, pasting, sculpting, and creating in the development of their Spring Exhibition projects. We have a few seventh grade students who have been blogging and podcasting as well. They have chosen to publish their research on Brazil via a blog and podcast.

Their blog has been a “work in progress” (as it should be) with multiple editing sessions and a number of podcast attempts. Although they have received guidance, the students have done all of the work themselves in setting up the blog, choosing the blog theme template (multiple times), selecting and importing the pictures, writing the post, writing and recording the podcast, etc.

They’ve done a great job! If you’d like to visit their blog and listen to their podcast, just click on the picture of their blog home page on the left.

A few of our happy campers from past Jr. Tech Camps here at South Side Middle had a nice visit yesterday afternoon with Linda Eller, Prof. Dev. Coordinator in the district’s technology department.  Ms. Eller recorded a podcast of our campers describing their experiences in our two previous Jr. Tech Camps.  In addition, I was able to give them a preview of our upcoming Jr. Tech Camp.  We look forward to hearing the podcast when it is uploaded to our district website!

Thank you, Linda, for your interest and support!  Thank you, jr. tech campers, for staying after school to talk to Ms. Eller.  Y’all all did a great job!  And thank you to Ellan Thompson, our South Side Middle tech savant, for all your time and expertise!
