Welcome to our special Math Lincs episode. Math Lincs is a collaborative project for 5th and 6th grade math students around the world. Every month we are given a special math assignment to complete and share with the participants. This month our job was to explain some words related to probability and statistics. We chose to share our results through this podcast. Please leave us a comment!

I’ve posted the link to your podcast on our moodle. Unfortunately, mp3s are blocked at our school so I will have to listen to it when I get home. I can’t wait to hear and am excited to share with others!

WOW! What a talented group of students you both have living in that portable. The podcast was not only entertaining but very informative. What an interesting way to learn about math. I don’t remember math being so much fun when I went to school.

Wow - that was great! Congratulations on your hard work everyone. You all sounded very professional. Watch out CBC Radio… Mr. Toft’s class is on the air! Thanks for making math interesting and entertaining. Keep up the great work!

Looking forward to your next podcast!

Wow!!!! My class will learn a lot about podcasting from listening to you not to mention all the great vocabulary teaching. You did a super job. Can’t wait to hear other episodes of Portable Radio. ca.

Hi,

Thanks for all of the encouraging feedback. It’s gratifying to receive so many comments this early in the school year.

I’ve added a link to the Math Lincs project. You can also find links to this project on our own class website at:

Hi,
Sorry I’m so late in listening and responding to portable radio. Every time I do I am so impressed with the quality of your broadcast and how informative your episodes are!

Hope that you enjoyed seeing the newly published book “Our Class Podcast”! No doubt you recognize a number , if not all of the main characters in the book!

Keep up the great work. I have a feeling that this year you will have even more feedback and responses about your podcasts!

I love that podcast! Now I actually understand! Just kidding I knew that but for people who don’t know what the mathmatical words mean, then well you covered it! They would beable to learn just before I say “I have to go!”.

Bye student 23 -when leaving this comment, I saw that my student name said student 04, from last year :(
