After starting this podcast as an experiment last October, I never imagined that I would still be working on it now. As the school year starts again, it promises to be bigger and better.
Some ambitious goals for this year include:
1) have more student input
2) have the RSS feed placed onto the student portal page
3) try for an even more eclectic mix of podcasts
Welcome to school year 2008-2009!
Over the summer many people in China have found the site and have download many of the podcasts. Let us know who you are and where you are from!

Field trips are enjoyed by both teachers and teachers alike. However, often they are not treated as the great learning experience that they can and should be. Recently, as part of the Classroom Without Walls program, Grade Six students produced reflective and interpretative podcasts about their experiences. Have a listen, and if you like these, check out twenty more at ISM6 CWW.

What a treat! Carlos treated us to a great walking tour within the walls of Intramuros, Manila’s former capital. Fort Santiago, San Agustin Church,and the Casa Manila were the major stops on our journey.
Carlos dazzled us with a ‘one minute history of Jose Rizal,” the role of the Spanish and the Chinese in the the Philippines, Pinoy architecture(or lack of it) and reasons for the “Halo-Halo” make-up of Filipinos.
If you enjoyed the tour and want to treat your friends or even your parents, then contact Carlos at his blog. He has a schedule posted there.
To learn more about Carlos, to get Mom and Dad to understand the things you told them about Carlos, read this.

Perhaps the best podcast yet! Rebecca has volunteered to speak with us about the Fire Mummies of the Philippines.
Grade Six students watched an intriguing National Geographic video about mummies found in the hot, humid climate of the Philippines. Rebecca reminds us on where they were found, which cultural groups were involved, and how they mummified their relatives. A great listen!

Ms. Mohr explains how she uses iGoogle. iGoogle is very similar to Netvibes. It and Netvibes act as your “headquarters.” You set things up through RSS feeds so that new items posted on a website come to you, instead of you having to go many different websites every day.
If you are interested in understanding how RSS feeds work, watch this easy to understand video.
