Fairlop add their Podcasts.

Myself and Wendi finally got the opportunity to add the mp3's to the school's area on the LGFL podcast site. I was pleasantly suprised at how easy it was. I recorded and added previous mp3's using the LGFL tool.
Over the last term, Year 2 have been learning all about the Great Fire of London. They thought of all the questions they would liked to have asked Samuel Pepys and then imagined how he would have answered them through information they had found out using Magic Grandad, the Internet and the 2Simple story about the Great Fire of London'. I originally thought that the children would be able to work in pairs recording each other asking and answering the questions, but quickly realised that this was quite unrealistic due to background noise. So for the first Podcast, I worked with a group of six children and used the LGFL recording facility. This worked well but I was unable to delete the mistakes the children had made. So I saved it and then opened the MP3 in Audacity and cropped the mistakes and then uploaded it again.

The Podcasts about Glasbury were taken using the 'Sound Recorder' and a Logitech microphone on the computer at Glasbury House. These were then sent by e mail and put on our school website for Parents to access while their children were away. Today I opened the WAV. files in Audacity and converted them to Mp3 files and put them on the LGFL hosting site.
I think the recordings will be useful to present to the Year 5 children who are intending to go to Glasbury, an excellent reminder of the fun they had when they were there, great for the Parents to listen to, a good way for the year 6 children to think about how they present information and finally the children will be able to use them when writing their autobiographies at the end of the yea
