Voicethread


Voicethread is a web site that allows you to create one or more audio threads for any given image. I have used Voicethread a few times. At my school, we plan to purchase the Ed.voicethread option. The free version works great for small projects, but we plan to create individual portfolios for each child. We are going to pilot this in each grade level the first year. Please view the one I did this week with a selection of kindergarteners at http://blog.woodward.edu/waps. Please comment with your thoughts of other possible projects that could be done using this format.

Kim,
This is a really good idea. I tried to listen but found you had to register. I want to do that this week and will let you know what I think. I can't wait to hear!

It sounds like it is easy to do. Unfortunately, I was not able to view it because you had to register. I love getting more ideas that I can use in my classroom with kindergarteners.
