Hi people how do u do?
Let �s see if someone can help me with this situation...
I want to record some texts read by me to do a listening activity with a student that I have with some listening problems. I want to put her listening and fill in spaces with words that aren �t in the text. Is there any program that I can download for this?
I know some sites where I write a text and then a voice reads teh text but the problem is that they have a maximum characters and so it doesn �t suit my needs.
thanks in advance for your help...
Have a great day
P.S. does any of my Portuguese collegues teach 10th graders with the booh LOG IN by Areal Editores? Send me a message if u do

In my opinion, one of the best sites for recording your speech is http://www.podomatic.com/featured
You just have to sign in, and that �s it! Start recording the next moment!
Good luck!

I have another suggestion:
- Go to http://www.esl-lab.com/ and choose a text that suits your ss level or the topic you want to use.
- Copy the mp3 file (with the text audio) to your computer right-clicking on the link.
- Copy the text and paste into a software like hot potatoes, it helps you prepare several kinds of exercises.
- In hotpotatoes, just highlight the words / expressions you want to take off.
- The software allows you to create definitions for the words in the gaps.
- When you finish, just click "export to print" and the program will copy everything.
- Open a word document and choose "paste".
- You �ll have the gap-filling, definitions, missing words (in alphabetical order, and the original text on the last page.
- Burn a CD with the audio.
Done!
Hope it helps.

There is also an option to record your voice in Power Point.
Find the option in the tool box under "pictures" (I think it �s called so in English, I have a Swedish version).
So you can also have pictures as a background.
Good luck.
