Inside a software called Soundtrap.com students develop quick PSAs, commercials, and even station taglines. From second grade to sixth grade, student utilize digital tools in my classroom to develop content for the radio station and television station. Fifth graders have been busy this month learning how to create radio commercials. They have learned how to mix sound effects, background music, and narration to create commercials for their favorite product.

These headphones will be a great addition to the station sound board in our radio studio.
