Genially Activity

Some thoughts after using Genially in class: Taking into account this was the first time for me (and my students) using Genially, I must say it was not as user-friendly as we thought it would be at the very beginning, when we had a look at the app; that's why we needed to do an accurate planning in order to define every stage which would be followed not to make many mistakes and get the most out of Genially. The plan consisted on three different sessions before the oral presentation itself. In Stage 1, the group was established and the topic chosen; the activity was developed in 2º Bachillerato (second language) and since it is a small group formed by seven students we only did one group, dividing into sections their work. An idea came to my mind and after a short debate we thought about creating a TV show where everyone had their own part as a presenter (international and national news, sports, weather forecast, society, entertainment, etc.). In Stage 2 and 3, we ...

Reading as a way of life

Reading as a way of life I could say, without a doubt,  that I love reading. However, I cannot deny that I do not practice it as much as I would like to. We live immersed in a time where work, families, friends and society itself prevent us from having a relaxed time for our own hobbies (or this is at least my case, living in that super-technological and busy era ).

ACTIVITY USING TIMELINE  a) The learning objectives of the activity: Learn to summarize and concentrate on the important information. Bring women’s history to class. Use English language as the vehicle of communication. Use of technologies and new tools as “Timeline”. Work in small cooperative groups. b) The advantages of using TimeToast for this activity:   Students felt curious about the fact of using a new program and found it interesting in order to summarize what they read in a different way. It is a useful tool and easy to get used to it. As we were working with different important women in history, they concentrate on the most significant facts.   c) The steps you followed to set up the activity: First of all a brief presentation of the Women’s Day (I got advantage of celebration of the 8th March) and decide to present some general knowledge about the importance of these women in our past and recent history. Then, I exposed what the activi...
