Introducing Students to Podcasting

EA Sports College Football 25 "A Dynasty for the Ages."

This week on The Nailed It Wall Miss Scofield and Mr. Lane the STEM Guy bring back Mr. Humphrey by popular demand to talk all things a video game. Listen to the impact of EA Sports College Football returning has meant to two friends working in education. There was a trophy ceremony, speeches and families in attendance. to witness it all. EA Sports 25 returned with a bang and it truly had a lasting impact on two educators who view it as much more than a game even though EA Sports says "It's In the Game.". So the next time you question adults playing a kids game take a listen and let us know if you still think adults should be able to play video games. Some might call this pod a hail mary, a hot route, an audible at the line or maybe the just purest thing since Carl and Ellie Fredricksen said "I do."

Mr. Humphrey Principal from Wisconsin Nails It or Fails It

This week on the Nailed It Wall Miss Scofield and Mr. Lane the STEM Guy talk to their good friend Mr. Brett Humphrey. He joins the pod to snap another long hiautus. Mr. Humphrey aka Radial Bone sits down to drop some knowledge about admin life, teacher life and what how he hopes to inspire the community he serves alongside his amazing staff!!! The Nailed It Wall is back again. I know you have all heard that before (broken record playing)... teaching is a different beast and it takes a lot of time. Our hope is to get back into churning (Wisconsin reference) an episode a week. You are going to love listening to Radial Bone's sage wisdom about life. Our challenge for you is to count how many analogies he makes in a single pod.

On this weeks episode they chat about the highlights of this past school year, their summer plans and preparing next school year.
