For some students history is interesting and enjoyable. For others it is boring and a waste of time. I have come across a podcast put on by Colonial Williamsburg. The pod casts are about 11 minutes in length and ran just off my computer. Some of the pod casts were "The Wooden Teeth that Weren't", "Town Gunsmith", "Meet the Cooper", "Meet the Shoemaker", "Meet the Carpenter". All of these characters are interviewed on the podcast. I learned some interesting things as well.
Here is a link to the podcast: http://podcast.history.org/
Check it out and see if it adds to the enjoyment of history. I would recommend it for at least middle school or above.
