11/7/16 Jack Simon

Today in class we made our podcasts with our groups about level 2 for Read Player One. Our job for homework or in last class to see what allusions were made in the book. The first thing we did in class when we got there was figure out what we were going to talk about in our podcasts. Like the first podcast, Mr. Rivers gave us a worksheet to help us figure out what we were going to talk about. The worksheet entailed of objectives or topics about the podcast, questions each person was going to ask, and things each individual person wanted to work on. The group could have as many objectives or topics as they wanted too. It was just there to help you figure out what your group was going to talk about. The questions that you and you table mates had to fill out, was to help you see what other people thought of level two and their different opinions. Also, another topic the groups talked about was the allusions made in the book affected the reader.

As the class came closer to the end, you and your group members was deciding and finishing what you guys were going to discuss. Whether it was different questions about a certain topic or about the overall chapters of level two. With about 15 minutes left in class you and your group would do a sound check to make sure your podcast was working. Some groups went out into the hallway, and one group went into the recording studio. The others stayed in the classroom.

Mr. Rivers would walk around and listen to your podcasts, while you and your fellow group members were talking. The podcasts lasted about 10 minutes and when your group was done, one of members would put the link to the podcast into the groups slide so others could listen to it. And thats about when class came to an end.
