Meet me at the Corner
You may wonder about the title of this blog post, but it is the title of a website for kids which has virtual field trips as video pod casts.
The description and links below are from the author, Donna W. Guthrie.
Directed at America’s school children, each show explores the world and its wonders from a child’s point of view. During each video pod cast a child host serves as tour guide, leading the viewer to historic and cultural sites. Each show includes a suggested reading list and a Learning Corner of follow-up activities for school children ages eight to twelve.
From the author, Donna W. Guthrie, "Our new episode on THE AMERICAN COWBOY features an interview with Bob Norris owner of the T Cross Ranch in Pueblo, Colorado. Mr. Norris talks about the history of the horse and his life as a modern-day cowboy. Our videos are posted on our website, Currki (http://www.curriki.org) and TeacherTube (http://www.teachertube.com)".
The main site is at www.meetmeatthecorner.org, where the videos are also hosted.
I visited the main site and found the videos short and well edited. Good learning.
Cheers - Mike
