Grammar Snob
December 18, 2008 — Vanessa RileyWe are working on a podcast for a 7th grade class in the district – we are calling it Grammar Snob. I am learning that while I think it might be easy to talk about the difference between “their”, they’re”, and “there”, the students are finding it harder. I had to cut my time limit down from 2-3 minutes to about 45 seconds.
I think it’s because of lack of content rather my too high expectations. We’ll have to come back to this.
Also, I find that final drafts are much harder to come by. What I consider a rough draft is what the kids consider a final copy. That’s something that we will also revisit later.
I’m still trying to figure out a way to best publish these podcasts for a global audience. Any suggestions?
