Podcasts at Waldron Elementary



Link to library Google site and classroom podcast links...

Wow! I'm so excited about the Podcasts that some of our 4th grade students are creating! Mrs. Atchley's math/science classes wrote and recorded "grabbers" for a research presentation. They played their podcasts for the class during the presentation. Mrs. Picken's literacy classes have created a classroom newspaper. The AM class just published their newspaper today. Each student who contributed an article to the newspaper recorded a podcast. All of the podcasts are published on the library Google site for everyone to enjoy. I encourage you to visit the site, click on a classroom, and learn something new! Our kids are doing GREAT things at Waldron Elementary!

Meet Indigo

We have a new addition to the library. Indigo, the Beta fish, and his friend "snail" have moved in. Ms. Sparks had a great idea for adding the aquarium to the library. We asked students to help name the fish, and the name Indigo seemed to fit. All the students check on Indigo when they come in to check out books. Ms. Sparks has plans to change the aquarium background to fit the holidays/seasons. Right now Indigo's aquarium resembles a spider web.  Good idea Ms. Sparks!
