Historical Tales
Welcome to the Historical Tales Podcast page! In collaboration with Mrs. Seibert’s third grade class, each student read a Historical Tale that is part of a new series presented in our library this year. Each student was recorded using Audacity during their library and open library sessions. In the classroom and library students created a poster-sized book cover, which were presented in the library. The following podcasts will feature each student summarizing elements of his or her historical tale. These tales originate from five ancient civilizations: Ancient Egypt, Ancient India, Ancient China, Ancient Rome, and Ancient Greece. Click on each podcast link to listen to the tale. So stay tuned and enjoy!
