USING MINDMAPS IN CLASS

According to one of the previous didactic unit about weather I have planned, I consider essential to create a mindmap. In this way, will be able to structure in their minds the main concepts of the unit.

The application I have selected to create the mindmap is Creately. From my point of view, it is very easy to add different kinds of lines, squares and circles to write important concepts. Moreover you can decorate them with different colours. It seem to be a basic thing but, in other apps I have tried, I had to pay for it. An other thing I consider essential of this page is that I can attach as many images from my computer.

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.

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.

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.
