NPS Podcasts - Summer Listening!

This term, the grade 3/4s made podcasts and comics in Community Inquiry. This was to wrap up our ethical inquiry into whether or not it's ok to lie to get out of trouble. This came about because earlier in the year, when talking about values, we found that lots of students thought that it was ok to lie to "save yourself" (from trouble).

 

The schedule this term for making the podcasts and comics was really tight, and it was a challenge for some students to manage their time and group dynamics! 

 

Nonetheless, lots of students did manage to finish and I'm really proud and excited to share them below. Please have a listen over summer, and also check out the ABC podcast Short & Curly, which is super engaging and what inspired our own podcasts.

 

Comics will be displayed in the student noticeboard outside the toilets next year, a few at a time.

 

The top three podcasts, based on the level of engagement of the classes with whom I've already shared them, and their professionalism, are:

Here are the other podcasts that were completed in time. Please have a listen! If your child is keen to finish their podcast over the summer, I'd love to hear it next term!

Thanks again to parent Cam, who did a huge amount to support me and the whole podcast project by compiling the sound effects and theme music. I would have been lost without you!
