=Pencast Jobs= These are the jobs for making a pencast. 1. Artist, or Designer: You draw a picture before the presenter talk. 2. Presenter, or Speaker: You press "record" and teach us by speaking. You can draw MORE pictures too! 3. Monitors, or people who make sure the group works together. 4. Organizer, or Monitor that reminds the group how to use the smartpen.

You will be assigned a number (1,2,3, or 4). If you do not have a number, you are the audience, or listeners. You will sit at the tables watching the groups on the rug. We will switch when we are finished.

=Another Way to Create a Pencast= Follow these steps to plan out a pencast.
 * 1) Get a pencil to **draft** your pencast.
 * 2) Add a title and your names (capitalize the words!).
 * 3) Create a dot with an arrow, plus the word, "play."
 * 4) Write your **draft** of the pencast you want to share with the world.
 * 5) Revise and edit **draft**.
 * 6) Turn on the pen. Then trace over the pencil with the pen.
 * 7) Practice reading your pencast.
 * 8) Press "record" in the notebook. Press your, "play" dot. Read with a **clear** voice.
