Virtual Announcement Studio

I have seen so many different ways that schools are sharing their daily announcements. I have seen live announcements (we are a school of 850+ students, so I don't think this would ever work for us), I have seen a pre-recorded video that is sent out weekly or daily. However, the art teacher at my school, Sara Levi and I sat down and brainstormed how to use the bitmoji classroom craze to create a announcement studio. She took the lead on this project, but I wanted to share it with everyone!

Here is a tour of the radio station:

• Microphone has a welcome note
• One speaker has the Pledge of Allegiance
• One speaker has the Weekly Announcements
• Calverton banner has the Calverton Pledge
• Calendar has the Daily Announcements
• The board on the right is going to be for spotlighting students or teachers doing great things
• The banner at the top will change for different events happening at our school, currently it has our Hispanic Heritage Month celebrations

We want to get our students involved, so we are going to ask some to record different parts of our announcements. We also talked about adding a birthday celebration section as well.

Teachers visit the radio announcement station each morning before class begins, just like if we were in the school building. This is a super easy way to spread the news each day.
