Podcast Writing for Beginners!

Use this three-day mini-lesson as a springboard. Then, have students pick their own mystery novel (or use a class mystery novel) and have the students write a podcast based on the story.

Students can work alone, in pairs, or in small groups to produce a true crime podcast.

This can be a stand-alone 3-day Lesson to introduce a podcast unit or a fun activity!

Choose your focus: public speaking, writing, or BOTH!

YSA with The Literature Lady
✦ PRO

Hi, I’m Kim!  I’m an educator with a Bachelor’s and Master’s in Elementary Education and more than 30 years of classroom experience. 

I started The Literature Lady because I wanted to make reading come alive for students—and make lesson planning a lot easier for teachers. I create resources that were way too time-consuming to create while teaching full-time, so that now you don’t have to! My passion is creating engaging, low-prep resources, such as novel studies, Word Noodle vocabulary games, and reader’s theatre scripts, that help kids fall in love with books while building real skills. 

When I’m not writing or designing new lessons, you’ll find me teaching right here on the TeacherStore.io community platform! The Young Scholar Academy is an online small group learning community that teaches homeschool students in grades 1-8. We teach core classes, electives, one-on-one tutoring, and so much more! As Tiffany would say, "Come for the classes, stay for the community!" 

I am also a fun of reading, baking, traveling, or hanging out with my husband, our two college-aged sons, and our dogs, Maisie and Sophie.
