__ History __
 * Podcasts: **

[|The History of Rome] A weekly podcast that traces the rise and fall of the Roman Empire. I like how engaging it is.

[|Matt's Today in History] A quick 5-7 minute podcast that explains an event that happened on this day in history. This would be great for a classroom project.

[|A History of the World in 100 Objects] This podcast links up to the British Museum and uses objects from the museum to tell a history of the world. Elementary and middle school children can go on a voyage through the museum with this podcast and the British Museum website! []

__ Language Arts __ [|Grammar Girl] One of my favorite podcasts and websites. Anytime I have a question regarding grammar I look it up on the website. It is very informative AND is taught in such a way that children and adults can enjoy it without feeling silly for not knowing the subject matter.

[|The Princeton Review - Vocabulary Minute] This is a fun website which builds vocabulary. It is for ALL ages and is a must see. Basically the podcast is a song with 4 vocabulary words in it and teaches the meaning through music. All of the songs are catchy and you find yourself singing them!

[|The Art of Storytelling with Brother Wolf] This is a podcast for all of us current and future teachers. It is a series of interviews with storytellers about how they bring their stories to life.

[|Hooked on Phonics] I know I am only supposed to have 3 from each subject but this podcast has wonderful reviews and will be useful in my primary level classes.

__ Math __ [|Mr. A's Geometry Podcast] Made by a teacher for his students, but is very easy to follow along with and helps explain Geometry for any struggling learner.

[|Mathtrain.TV Podcast] This video podcast is made by students at Lincoln Middle School in Santa Monica, CA. It makes learning fun by drawing out the math problems as the students explain them. Great for visual learners!! I’ll bet it is wonderful for the students who are making these podcasts. This would be a good project to try out with a classroom. Show them this first and ask if they want to try to make one as well.

[|Is All About Math] A video podcast for Elementary math. It does a great job introducing children to abstract ideas in math and showing them how they work.

__ Science __ [|Physics in Action] This podcast is done by a classroom and introduces Physics into the real world.

[|Dr. Carlson's Science Theater] A fun podcast for adults and children. Video podcast of science demonstrations.

[|Sorting out Science] “Science for people who hadn’t realized science is interesting.” That is what the description is and it is very accurate. While the host is not the most exciting, the information that he teaches us is great. __ Languages __ [|Italian - Survival Phrases] This podcast helped me immensely before I went to Italy. I downloaded it to my ipod and listened to it every time I went running. The host is easy to listen to and she does not go to quickly. This would be great for children who are taking a language or for parents who want their child to learn another language.

[|English as a Second Language Podcast] A wonderful podcast for adults who have extra time to listen and practice English. It is something that can definitely help people with the English language.
