Week Number Three

This week was totally fun because we decided to involve technology into the classroom! The students are doing a unit on Rhyming and they were reading the book, "down by the bay" Lynn and i thought it would be really fun to actually record the rhymes that they made up in the lyric part of the song as individuals and then also record the whole class singing the song. I bought some recording equipment and took them into a back room using the free download program, "Audacity" and recorded their voices saying their rhymes and then got the whole class to sing it while i played and sang the song with them with my guitar. We are going to be putting together a slide show with the pictures they drew and them holding watermelon's too. I'm really exctied to see how it all turns out!
