INTERESTING RESOURCES

 Hello everyone! 


Today I want to share with you some websites which help me to create some resources to carry out some activities to practice in classroom with oral skills. 

First website is WordClouds. 

It is a reliable site where you can create text images for what do you want. In my case, I used to put the vocabulary words that I wanted to work in my class. For instance, the vocabulary is about hobbies. Therefore, I used the lyrics of one song that was about that. The site provides a big range of different shapes and letters, in which you can change the length, colours, thickness, background... It is so intuitive and so easy to navigate it. Moreover, when you have your creation ready don't need any additional computer requirement, you can download your image in a PNG format.  

Here you are the example: 


Here you have a little explication attached. 


Second website is Fun Kids English. 



It is a site created by Greg Crawford, BJ Bulmer & Bill Borella. They offer a very valuable content for academic aims. The site is absolutely reliable and provides a lot of interesting resources for kids, and the principal page is created with colours and funny draws. Gives us different material designed for children and the site has a lot of interactive games, songs, and funny videos. Moreover, I made my previous image with the lyrics of one of their songs, " The Hobbies Song for Kids - What do you like to do? ".  


Do you like these resources? Do you want that I share with you more about it?

THANKS FOR VISITING ME! 💙

    Hello Maria Paula! After reading your blog posts, I would like to highlight this section where you show us different resources, applications and websites. Some of them like Fun Kids English I knew before but the rest do not and I find very useful both for teachers and for students.
    I do not know if you know this application that I want to recommend. I use it a lot as I find it ideal and very simple to use. The application or web is called Genial.ly. It is a tool that allows us to generate interactive digital content without programming and without having design knowledge.
    Thank you for share this things with all us!!

LISTENING ACTIVITY EXAMPLE

 Hello everyone!  I want to share with you one example of a Listening activity to do in class, which we will use the materials created with the resources shared in the last post.  The topic of the day is gonna be “The Hobbies”, and we can start the class with a little brainstorming to know how many hobbies our learners like. Following the lesson, the teacher starts to explain the activity which consists in play a game, where they have to watch a picture projected in a white board. Picture: Then, learners have to draw a table with nine gaps, and in each gap, they have to write one word of the projected picture. After that, the teacher explains that the words in the picture that they have copied, are the lyrics of the video song that they are going to watch ( "  The Hobbies Song for Kids - What do you like to do?  ")   . The game consists in listening the song while the students have to underline the written words when it appears, and if they have all the wor...
