I listened to a professional podcast featuring Gifted/Talented education expert Joseph Renzulli. The site offered various segments of a 2006 interview with Renzulli. Although my main focus in the district is Enrichment, I am confident that this podcast offers information that can be utilized by everyone in the district. I would rate this podcast as ****

I created a current event activity for the 6th grade ETC (Enrichment That Challenges) class in the middle school based on the popular Survivor television show. Because of that, the personal interest podcast I selected to review deals with current event trivia for middle school students. The podcast I listened to is a fun and creative way for students to review current events from the previous week by challenging the students with a bit of a trivia competition. I will be incorporating this podcast into the current event challenge activity in ETC beginning in September. Rated ****
