Dear Teacher
So now we are in the last spring month, summer is just around the corner! We like May, and you can find out why in this level 1 podcast The merry month of May. This is one of our podcasts for May. There are plenty more including, for International Day of Families on 15 May, Boy George. In this level 3 podcast Rob talks about the challenges of being a father. There are more, and more will be added towards the end of the month too so do keep an eye open on the sidebar for the levels pages.
We have also updated our Podcasts of the month, favourites from the archives. These include The long arm of the law where we talk about our experiences with the police.
We start this month with a podcast about sounds. In Did you hear that? we talk about how different sounds can affect us, and there's a fun challenge for you to do too! This is a level 3 podcast.
Remember that while most podcasts are free, podcasts 1 - 99 are for members only. Each podcast has essential transcripts, worksheets and extra materials for teachers and learners and with over 2000 to choose from, Join pie now!
