ColeyCast
While teaching 5th grade, Brent's pupils created their very own classroom podcast called ColeyCast. Recorded by the students, each broadcast highlighted some of the exciting things they were learning in our classroom, from social studies to science to parts of speech to poetry. In addition to reinforcing the concepts learned in class, creating podcast episodes gave students an audience extending far beyond the four walls of the classroom. The podcast had listeners from all over the country and even overseas!
Below you can find all 53 episodes Brent's students created over the years. If you're looking to create your own podcast with students, you'll find some resources below as well. Enjoy!
