I'm currently working on some podcasting programs for iPods. Immediately I thought, "Someone out there is already releasing some great old style radio dramas in a free podcast." Shu-Nuff!
If you have iTunes you can search iTunes store using the key words "radio drama". This can save you some time as they do have some labeled as "Clean" or "Explicit". On the web try searching with "classic radio drama podcast" or just "radio drama podcast". I did find some oldies called "Five Minute Mysteries" that your students might enjoy at <http://www.nomig.net/radiodrama/otr.php?series=5%20Minute%20Mysteries>. I like the short examples with sound effects. Since we're closing in on Halloween, you might also try Mystery Play Internet Radio http://www.mystery-otr.net. I'm listening to "Scary Old Time Radio Episode One" right now. Their clever disclaimer: "If you frighten easily turn off your mp3 player NOW!" :-) Keith Mack [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.literacyworkshop.org -----Original Message----- From: Christine Hughes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 10, 2006 10:39 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [LIT] oral fluency Radio broadcasts found on CD and tape help students "see" what just a reading can be like and how much can be portrayed through just the sounds they hear. _______________________________________________ The Literacy Workshop ListServ http://www.literacyworkshop.org To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/lit_literacyworkshop.org.
