And remember that Itunes offers a whole section of kids podcasts. I do warn you to make sure mom/dad/Aunt Sue or Uncle Joe allows you to download them to your home computer.
Remember, you are listening to at least two different podcasts and comparing content, background noise, insertation of sound, etc. Put some thoughts onto paper and have them in class for Thursday.
