Podcast Subscriptions

I have subscribed to a couple of podcasts- the ones that I will reflect on today are BrainStuff and Tenacious Teacher. The first podcast- BrainStuff is from the website howstuffworks.com which is a website that my kids already visit on a regular basis. This podcast addresses a daily question and then answers it. For example "What does RSVP mean?" or "Does drinking ice water burn calories?" I think my students would enjoy listening to this podcast and finding answers to some of their questions.
The second podcast Tenacious Teacher- Teaching Strategies for the Everyday Teacher is a podcast for me. It gives me tips and suggestions for my own teaching. A couple of example topics are Bloom's Taxonomy and Providing Feedback. Some of these could be extremely important and serve as good reminders for how to make my teaching that much better. I am excited to subscribe to some more podcasts and explore them and allow my students to find some that interest them and could be incorporated in my classroom. I look forward to seeing everyone else’s to see what I can subscribe to! :)
