Aggregated Content Curation

 

Pinterest is an excellent content curation tool that has be chosen to group different acitivities of plants. Many people use this tool. In this way, those who are interested in teaching the unit of plants will be able to see 5 pins that I consider essential to use in class. Moreover, you can search for new content related to the topic you are teaching about and adding new pins when you want! That appears in the right-top of this blog.

1- The fist one is a video that you can search on YouTube. It will be very useful for introducing the topic essential to be watched by the children. That´s because the success of the kids in the next activities will depend on the reproduction of tis video.

2- Then, they will complete a worksheet to know if they have paid attention to the video. They have to fill the blanks with the name of the parts of a plant.

3- In the third activity, they will have to read a "book" of storyjumper. The clear explanations and the images will help the students to know how plants grow. 

4 - There are some steps they can follow at home if they want to plant a seed. It´s more meaningful for students to have an active role and build their knowledge. How would you put that in practise better than planting their seeds?

5- Finally, they can visit the wordwall website and complete a quiz about plants. Teachers will be able to see how much have their students learnt.

    Nice post Diego! I really liked the idea of making practical tasks in class and reading a book! These activities imply meaningful learning. I've just followed your Pinterest board since plants are a great part of Science content. Good scaffolded planning - that's a great CLIL teachers' characteristic.

FAVOURITE P.E. GAMES

Physical Education lessons start with a warm up. After that, it´s very important to engage your students to your class with challenging games. Here, you can find some of the games I have played with them. I'm sure that they will be very profitable for all of you.      - Tic Tac Toe: It´s known as "3 en raya" in Spain. The gruop is divided into 2 teams. They have to pick up the t-shirts from the floor and place them in the correct hoop in order to have three of the same color in a row.      - Spiders: Four students will be selected. They will have to move as spiders do, trying to catch other students. If one mate is taught by other one spider, both will have to catch the rest of students. The last student that is taught by a spider will be the winner.

ENJOY YOUR SUMMER, ENJOY YOUR LIFE

ENJOY YOUR SUMMER, ENJOY YOUR LIFE Today, it´s a good opportunity to show you how to create a podcast.  First of all, you will have to write the script related to the information you want to transmit to your pupils. Regarding to the thematic of my podcast, I opted to talk about motivation and personal development. Hence, students will be able to think about it during their summer holidays. Once you have done it, you can record your voice saying the content of the script. Remember that you have to engage your students, so I recommend you change the level of your voice continuously.  When you have the file with your voice recorded, you can download the app Anchor. I have selected it because it´s very useful to add some details to your podcast and upload it. You will be able to find many sounds gathered in different sections depending on their thematic. Moreover, you can put them at the beginning of the audios, between them or just at the end.  Finally, I could embed properl...

 Genial.ly for creating presentations.  The teacher told us to create a presentation in order to know the different tools that many apps facilitate us to present a content.  I chose Genial.ly because there are many drafts about many topics you can modify with your information. As I wanted to create a presentation about plants for second graders, a draft based on natural drawings was selected. Moreover, you can add images and use it as easy as a power point.  Finally, we were taught about the importance of including a cover with the title of the topic, an index that show the audience how your presentation is going to be structured, the conclusions of your research and finally, give words of thanks.
