Tips for creating VoiceThread

If you choose VoiceThread for displaying students' works, you may like to know how to organize VoiceThread discussions:

Each school will start four or five VoiceThreads. The number of VoiceThreads will depend on the number of grade levels participating in the project (Lower and Upper Elementary, Middle, High, ELL , etc).

In the middle of each VoiceThread you can place a cover of a book that students will have read, or a picture of the class, an illustration or movie that st… Continue
