In an 8th grade Language Arts classroom, the teacher is a huge fan of the Beat Movement in American Poetry. To celebrate the period, the teacher has set up the following assignment: Students are to write a poem, and then use free, online podcasting software to create an audio file. The requirements of the podcast (audio file) are the following:
 * Must use an intro piece of music to precede the music.
 * Must include three or four sound effects.
 * Must include a closing piece of music to follow the narration.

Students will then play their podcasts in the classroom, while bringing in cookies and juice. Lights will be dimmed and students are encouraged to play the part by wearing black turtlenecks and berets. Students will listen to each other’s work and applaud and snap their fingers in appreciation.
