Thing #22

Podcasting is interesting....even though I am a visual person, I do like to listen ocassionally!! I played around in the four different directories listed. I found a very informative podcast about pets (cats in particular) entitled Tacoma Pet Hospital. I listened to two different podcasts on fleas by a vet who specializes in cat care. Alas, poor Jasmine has a few fleas from her walks into the wild. (I promise I am NOT the crazy cat lady.) The life cycle of the flea is fascinating, believe it or not, and I learned something new. Then I looked around at some more podcasts, but then couldn't remember which directory my cat care podcast was on!! I finally found it again. It was on Learn Out Loud, which was by far my favorite directory. It was definitely the easiest to use. I added Tacoma Pet Hospital to my Google Reader, as well as my iGoggle home page. Now, I can find cat care information whenever it need it. I don't plan to make my own podcast at this time, but who knows, maybe I will have something important to say in the future...then I will know what to do!!

Podcasting is so much. I hope you will consider doing it with your students next year. Check out some of my students' podcasts on my blog. I had 3rd and 6th graders creating podcasts. It is so easy on the Mac. My user name is Technocricket.
