AISW News Podcast: Recent Episodes
Teacher TW
Listen to an environmental news podcast produced by fourth and fifth grade students from the American International School of Wuxi, in China. Approximately every week, the students research, read, write, and record various stories in environmental news to share. These students have varying abilities in English, as some are learning it as an additional language. They are producing this podcast as a regular part of their reading and writing program.
