Prezi Presentations.

In this PREZI presentation we have used some of the tools I have already mentioned in previous posts. Prezi is more dynamic than Powerpoint and you can work on line together with other people so you can use it for collaborative work.
 Some of my students from different groups have written a description of our classroom first and then a description of their bedroom. Here you can find a simple written  essay and an oral reading of our classroom description. In addition you can see nice pictures of their bedrooms and some photosynth views.

My students´ experiences abroad.

Marina and Manuel says: "Our summer holiday. We had to make our suitcase to stay for almost one month in England. Then we went to a host family. I stayed with one woman and two Taiwanese students. I stayed with two Taiwanese students and then one week with two Chinese students. During the week we had to go to the college. We had three hours of lessons and other three hours of sports.We spent a lot of time talking with activity leaders, they were really funny.
On Wednesdays and on Sundays we had trips to a lot of places: Windsor, Oxford, Stonehedge, London, Reading... We saw the Tower of London, London Bridge, London Eye, Windsor Castle, Oxford Street, The change of Guards.
The food wasn´t very good at all.
We came back on the 24th of July.We really enjoyed it"

My students´ experiences abroad.

Silvia says: "Last summer I went to England. I've been in Torquay for two weeks. I visited the nearest villages and I made many friends. I went to English classes in another village near to Torquay. I went out with the Spanish friends every night. My hostfamily was very kind. I came back on the 29th of August. The travel was fantastic!"

Virginia says "This summer I went to Brighton , in the South of England . I arrived on the 26th of June . Here I met a lot of people and they are my friends now. I live with a host family and with Katy, a Russian girl. During the week we went to classes in the morning, and we did some funny exercices. In the afternoon, we did a lot of different activities, for example dancing, going to the beach... At the weekend we went to visit the nearest cities , London, Oxford , Eastburg, ... I came back on the 21st of July and we were all very sad because we made very good friends."

Pasapalabra.

The wheel is a nice project for students of all levels. My students wrote definitions for a word starting with every letter of the alphabet and then they ran a competition against other students in the same group and in different groups. It was fascinating and exciting. We really enjoy it. Use this website to create your own wheel: http://formadorestic.somee.com/pasapalabra/indice.asp

Bitstrips for Schools

We wrote comics about bullying at school, here is one example. What do you think?




We can use this website www.bitstripsforschools.com to create beautiful comic about any topics you want. It is free for 30 days after registration. You can print the comic, download it as a pdf, post it in a blog or share it by e-mail.

A different way of doing a presentation.

This is my last project with 1º eso, (I have got a group of students who are not motivated at all). Have a look at what they did!.
We took picture of our classroom and this is what we got.This is done with www.photosynth.net.



Then they have to describe the classroom and I recorded then with audicity and here is what I got:

Clouds of words.

You can use these clouds of words to work with vocabulary, to make presentations more attractive, to decorate blog and anything you can imagine. I use www.worditout.com
and www.tagxedo.com ‎
