Creative Voice celebrates 200 Episodes


Today we are turning 200. Not in years, but in episodes. We have made 200 episodes which include: Voice Threads, Podcasts, Movies, Animoto, Animasher, Xtranormal and Pulp Motion presentations. On February 5th Creative Voice was born and we made our first episode on "Meet the Class". We have definitely come along way since then with our speaking, listening, writing and reading. The creators of this site are now commenting on their own work independently. A fantastic achievement as most of the children are 5 and 6 years old. Some have turned 7 recently.

Congratulations Room 3, I am very proud of you all and enjoy uploading your work onto this site. Keep your wonderful writing and reading coming in. From Miss Joy Paton-Class Teacher.
