Excerpt from the class weblog:<\/p>\n
“Next, we read some spooky stories and looked ways of building suspense writing.\u00a0 We listened to a ghost tour of Chester in England, then wrote our own ghost tour of IBIS school.\u00a0 This also included some instructions on how to follow the tour.”<\/p>\n
The recordings were made on TTS EasySpeak microphones (still available).\u00a0 These handheld microphones are child friendly and easy to use.\u00a0 Audio tracks could be transferred to a laptop through a USB connection.<\/p>\n
Creating the ghost tour was a lot of fun, especially creating and using some myths about the school and the teachers!\u00a0 The children had to speak very clearly and sometimes had to re-record their sections several times.<\/p>\n\n\t
