Using Garageband for Reading
 * Advanced Garageband**

Use vocal tracks - no effects. Training necessary - no fun bits etc, just simply taking a screenshot of a reading at the time. No peer assessment - simply self assessment tasks.
 * Hamish from Welcome Bay School, Tauranga**
 * iRead - Sue Brown
 * Developing reading fluency
 * Text at instructional level
 * Send them off to record themselves reading.
 * Training them to fully read the text - no stopping once you hit record. Mistakes need to be kept.
 * Then put on headphones and basically do a running record on themselves.
 * Compare what they've read to what is on the page.
 * Record themselves doing a reflection and record this at the end.
 * Set a goal.
 * Send it off to iTunes so that it can be linked in.

Magic Garageband
 * Load a magic Garageband and listen to the entire song first
 * This allows the students to hear what the song is like.
 * You can add an instrument.
 * You can change the instruments so that there are different sounds created.
 * Add a new track for vocals - this is so kids can sing/read/chant etc over the top.
 * Automatic level control - stops the screaming and screeching during recording.
 * Press record - the kids are good to go.
 * Always make sure they are spread out to avoid background noise.
 * Suggestion - headphone so the kids can hear. - As the kids record it records the music again.
 * Use the headphone splitters - [|find them from dick smiths.]
 * Remind them where the microphone is.
 * Garageband pref's -> Audio -> maximum number of simultaneous tracks - change the number here.
 * This is if it tells you there are too many tracks there to play at once.
