Listen to the Wind Podcast

We loved this book about Greg Mortenson and the people of Korphe, Pakistan.  We are reading more books about schools in Afghanistan and Pakistan.  You might want to visit the Pennies for Peace website.

Our new school is being built right now.  We can see the workers right outside our window.  We made some comparisons with Korphe School and our new school that’s being built.

    Excellent work. You’re getting more and more professional with each podcast.
    I wonder if you’ve read about the librarian who saved all the books.

    I love this story! Your podcast was AWESOME! I am amazed by Greg’s bravery and how he never gave up, even when the going got tough! I am sending some pennies your way! Maybe even some quarters from my son Eliot :)

    In My Carpets?

    + How do you do the work to get the podcast on the

    I so enjoyed your responses to Listen to the Wind, because each of you found a special way to get your point across. You must have a wonderful teacher—someone who invites you to be who you are. Like the kids in GM’s books, you and your teacher are making good things happen. I’ve read Three Cups of Tea and trekked up Everest Trail in Nepal, not far from Mortenson’s first schools, so my heart is happy that you are so committed to this project. Maybe you can even connect with one of the schools.
    Thanks for helping!

    Awesome job! I can tell that you did a lot of work and that you are terrific readers and writers. And teachers, too. I gained new information from your podcast.

    Hey grade 3′s,
    That was an awesome podcast. I shared it with the grade 5′s at my school in Calgary since they organized a Pennies for Peace fundraiser at our school. I thought they’d enjoy listening to your podcast. They did! Their teacher, Mrs. Schlebach, wants to post an article that appeared on our school board website about the fundraiser. How can she do that?
    Cheers!
