Stocksbridge Junior School

The Year 3s have been learning how to record and manipulate sound.
Using a piece of software called ‘Audacity’, the children recorded a nursery rhyme then used some of the effects to change the way their voices sound.
See if you can identify which of these effects have been used:
~ amplify
~ change pitch
~ change speed
~ change tempo
~ echo
~ repeat
~ reverse
~ wahwah

On Tuesday 24th April Mr Wilson’s literacy set were taught how to create podcasts by Miss W and Andy. We worked in pairs, which made it even more fun, to practice and record our reports on a carnival. We had written a first draft down the day before so we just had a little practice then used a program called Podium to record them.  It was really exciting and I sounded really funny when I listened to myself!

In year Mr Wilson’s literacy set, with Miss Willats, we did podcasts. Podcasts are a recorded piece of writing you can post onto the Internet. We used a program called ‘podium’ to record our podcasts. I worked with Emma D an Alice P. Once you press stop, It shows you how much you have recorded and how big the sound waves were depending on how loud you speak into it. I had a lot of fun, and can’t wait to do it again some time. We had to do it on a news report about a trip to a carnival, and we either worked in groups of two or three.

On the 24th of April the year 5 top literacy set made podcasts. The day before we all wrote about a carnival in the genre of a newspaper report so that we could record these as podcasts. We had to speak into a microphone which recorded our voies. Then we got to listen to it and see the sound waves. The podcasts were realy fun to make as everyone felt like real reporters! Some of us got jingles on the front of our reports, this made it sound really dramatic, like we were breaking news. On some of the reports we said about rides going at 25 miles an hour!
