Mrs Tonner's Voices of the World project has got off to a great start with over twenty schools taking part in the first task which involved a pupil or pupils recording themselves saying the expression 'Hello, we are from (school) in (country) and you are listening to Voices Of The World.' in their own language and then creating a Voki with the resulting mp3 file.
Mrs Tonner has posted all the Vokis individually on the VOTW wiki as well as editing all the audio together to make a groovy podcast which you can listen to by clicking on the Gcast player above.
For October's task, Mrs Tonner would like us to use Animoto to create a multimedia slideshow of our pupils singing their national anthem in 30 seconds or less. Sounds like fun.
Here are some comments from four pupils in 7JD:
Asa: I think it is really cool because you can listen to different accents and languages from pupils of our own age.
Callum: I think it is really fun and wicked to listen to other languages from around the world
Jasmine: I think it is a great idea because you can listen to different voices of the world.
Harry: I thought it was cool because it had 22 different schools!
BIG thanks to those children who participated and also for the fantastic comments. Mrs Tonner
