The Infinite Word Podcast - Kristin Ewing

The Infinite Word
Episode 1: http://edtech2.boisestate.edu/kristinewing/audio/TheInfiniteWord-Episode_1.mp3
(updated 7/9/11)

My podcast series is called The Infinite Word - Sharing ways to expand your wordly wisdom. It's designed for students in approximately grades 3-6 and covers words, language, writing and authors.

During each podcast I plan to cover:

• Word of the day--its definition and context
• Quotes from famous and not so famous authors
• Author bios and books
• Writing tips
• Writing/Word game websites

For this podcast I focused on the word(s) infinite/infinitely/infinity, the author C.S. Lewis, and the writing tip of using a journal to record ideas. I also recommended a website for story tips called http://www.coreygreen.com/ and a website with word games called http://www.storyit.com/.

I updated the podcast on 7/9/11, adding an intro, outro and transition sounds between each section of the podcast. This extended the time to a little over 8 minutes.

Enjoy!
