Today’s overachieving teacher is Paden Roberts and she is planning on using the money to purchase podcasting equipment for the classroom! Read what she wrote about her class below.

“$500 would allow me to buy microphones (6 Yeti Snowballs) & headphones (12) (we don’t have any of either) for my students. We are currently working through our Argumentative Unit. I am working to allow my students to have a more authentic learning experience (and a fun one). In doing so, I have given my students the option to create a podcast instead of writing a paper. 45 out of my 51 students have chosen to do a podcast. These podcast projects will also be available to listen to at our next family night. I would love to be able to give my students an authentic experience with podcasting.”

Deserving teachers could win $500 for their class HERE!
