Did you hear that?

I really liked voicethread...and since I have a headset for school it was really easy to leave comments. This could be a great application for the English classroom, especially when working on literature. I ask the students to annotate anything we are reading that they own or I can copy...I could do this digitally for the students, or I could ask them to set up accounts, and they could have a conversation going outside of class via the comments. I believe they could also tie these comments to their own annotations. This would be a great way for them to focus on a passage/poem in depth.

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to "Chewin' on Lit!" I am an English teacher who loves to explore literature in my classroom and on my own. Hope you enjoy and choose to share your thoughts and chew on some lit with me!
