Voice Thread

Voice thread is an interesting program. The possibilities you can do with voice thread is endless!This would be excellent to use with higher grade levels.Voice thread allows for students to collaborate, share, and comment on their peer's work.  I really like the math presentation. It blew my mind! The problem is shown on the slide and you can hear the student solving the problem. The student is also able to doodle how they solved the problem. You are using multiple intelligences with voice threads. You are able to upload the students artwork and have them explain their picture.This can be used for students to explain characters in a story. Then,their peers can comment on the character and relate to that character. This is similar to open mind portraits. Also, parents can read and comment of their child's work

  1. Are you reading my mind Jeanette? I am a great fan of VoiceThreads as well. Really, the possibilities are endless. In fact, I just incorporated a VoiceThread into my lesson plan for my Job/Career lesson plan for Kindergarten! It went really well. I feel that VoiceThreading has no age limit. If you can talk then you are on!
