From the Desk of Mr. Garcia

by Pedro Garcia

This podcast is a classroom project, dedicated to giving 6th grade students in my class a voice. The rationale behind this podcast like most, is to provide the audience with the unique perspective of others, while providing a safe space for students to share their thoughts, opinions, ideas, and expressions without feeling judged. Not to mention, each episode will contain highlights from the week, a 1-on-1 interview with a student, and a motivational message. We hope you enjoy our class podcast! Best wishes!
