I want to share my experience with other because I would like to help people with my story.  I am going to show you Flipgrid . Flipgris is a social learning platform where teachers and students can share with other their own experiences using a video. You have 5 minutes to record your video, it is very easy to use, you can edit it and add some effects too. #Twima8 is the name of the Project within The world is my audience , focused for teachers and students to share stories or aspects of their lifes.

Hi everyone! In my last post, I told you about Storyboard proccess to creating a video Project. Today I am going to show you our video Project. As I said in my last post, the first thing we have to do it was a storyboard .  When you have an organizated project and everything is ready it is time to record the scenes.  To record our scenes, We had to do it in a Green background (Chroma) to be able to edit videos after  their recording. Also, you can use a Green Wall (you can made it with Green cards). The recording was carried out with a camera, you can use a mobile phone, Tablet or whatever electronic instruments(it is not neccesary profesional cameras).  Following the script of our storyboard, we recorded the video one by one. After recorded, we have to edite the video. It is the most complicated because you have to choose a right program that let you make a wonderful video. To edit our videos, we used iMovie tool because it is very easy to use. Once the video

Hi Friends! Today I am going to talk you about an amazin project we made in ICT class. It called STORYBOARD! What is a Storyboard?  It is a drawings and notes in frame. Each frame have an scene in a video where you have to choose a topic, the music, characters, dialogue, sounds and other special effects. Firstly, we had to make work team with our classmates.  In groups, we had to work cooperatively, it is important because the participation is essential to elaborate an excellent Project. So that, we elaborated a collaborative Google Doc where we designed our Project.  If you prefer desing your own template with a tool, you can use STORYBOARDTHAT . It is an easy tool to elaborate your own Project.  In this case, we used GOOGLE DOC to make our Storboard Project. We divided our Project in 4 steps:  Roles  Topic  Classroom Project  Script of the sequence Here you have our storyboard. This Project couldn't have been carried out without my classmates Fra

Hi Friends! Today, I am going to tell you a secrect. In the future, I want to be journalist, but by the moment I am still studing to get it. Also, I love writting stories, so I decided to create my own channel of radio stories with my own drama play. I love to share with my Friends my stories and them love too. I descovered the radio at school in drama class. We did an activity where we had to write a story and recorded. It was amazing! In this new post I am going to explain you how you can do your own stories. Hope you enjoyed! Why Podcasts at school? From my point of view, the use of poscast in language teaching is very useful for students in order to improve the amount of real input the student receveices. Through podcasts students can listen and Reading the transcription at the same time they improve in the oral productions in a fun way. It is important explain to our students the development of  the podcast, so that, I leave a welcome audio for our students.

I could write about the water cycle and put some pictures too! I think is a really good and motivated way to remember al the information we learnt in class. Here you can see my infographic in the next picture. Parks & Recreation Infographic de María Monje In this type of resource you can show what it is the most important or relevant part of any information. In this case, I used CANVA to make my own infographic. CANVA is a eassy tool to make your infographic. You can find a lot ot resources and images available to use in your infographic. From my point of view, to make a infographic is a good methology to use in all the subjects when you want to focus in a specific information about anything. As teachers, we can use this tool to design visually posters and images to compplement learning experien
