Interaction: Some bloggers you must know

 Hi again!

This time I ´ve posted this blog entry after having a look at my virtual classmates´ blogs. Now, I am going to analyse two of them. I promise they are amazing! Click on the pictures if you want to visit them.


The first one is a blog created by my virtual mate Sahman. When I discovered this blog, I started to use it in an inspirational way since he created activities really similar to the ones I make for my primary pupils. It seems to me very clear, tidy and easy to follow. If you need to look for a website that can give you ideas about how to work on traditional topics such as emotions or the parts of the house in a creative way, Sahman´s blog is your website!

The only thing I can mention is to include for example some quotes/pictures to make it more colourful or a link tree where we can find different interesting websites or resources that he uses as a support. Even so, I really like it and it can be aprecciated the great job behind doors.



The second one is a blog created by my virtual mate "La tishe"😜. It sounds funny, doesn´t it? This English teacher also creates activities that are appealing for me since she is also really creative and presents them in a colourful way. I can appreciate she establishes a clear structure of each of the proposed activities and that´s a very important thing when we work with low levels such as Primary Education is. 

A little suggestion I can say about this blog is to be careful with the text format. She uses different colours and text formats in each blog entry so it can sometimes looks messy.

LET US REFLECT A BIT: ARE YOU A GOOD READER?

Hi again!

I must share with you a reflection upon my reading habits.

It´s not a secret that I love reading since I can remember. However, it´s true that  my reading habits have changed nowadays and new technologies or my job are part of them.

Let´s answer some questions:

1. What kind of books or texts are the people reading? Did they chose the books themselves or did someone else choose for them?

Considering the pictures, people are reading in different places and in different formats too: newspapers, e-books, textbooks, traditional books... In some cases these books are an individual decision and you just read for pleasure but other times, you are typically given or chosen the books you have to read for any purpose (especially kids at school or when you are at the university). Thanks to new technologies, reading any kind of book at any place is possible.

3. Describe how they might be feeling at the moment and give reasons.

Regarding the answer to this question, it can be quite different depending on the situation. For example, students could consider that reading a text in their textbooks in class is really boring because it´s a compulsory activity. On the other hand, if you read something (a magazine, news, a novel…) by choice, that feeling changes.

4.  What texts do you enjoy reading in each language that you speak?

- Do you choose the same kind of texts or do you read very different things depending on the language? What factors determine your choice? 

- In what format do you read (paper, e-reader, online etc.)?

- When do you read?

Finally, as I said before, I love reading whether in English or Spanish because it´s a wonderful way to spread your imagination. But it´s true I usually read news, magazines or articles in L2 (digitally) and novels or short stories in my mother tongue (in paper). Why? I think the main reason is that I expend all day checking my student´s work in the L2 and I also study in English. Therefore, I find myself ending up by reading a book or a story in the L1 for comfort and fatigue when the day is over.

ENGLISH FOR KIDS AT HOME

Hello everyone!

This new post is for all parents and kids from early years to Primary courses who are at home these days. This current situation is really complicated for all. For that reason, I would like to invite you to have a look at these online resources that can help you and your kids to learn English unconciously and in a funny way.

Let´s go!

Translation:

¡Hola a todo el mundo!

Esta nueva publicación está dirigida a todos aquellos padres y niños/as (tanto de infantil como cursos superiores) que están reclutados en casa durante estos días. La situación actual que estamos viviendo es verdaderamente complicada para todos/as. Por ello, me gustaría invitarles a echar un vistazo a estos recursos online que pueden ayudarles a aprender Inglés de una forma divertida inconscientemente. 

¡Allá vamos!

Learning Time with Timmy

Esta aplicación gratuita nos ayuda a practicar y repasar con los más pequeños de la casa los números, los colores, las formas, los alimentos, los animales, los objetos de clase, los juguetes y muchas más cosas. Puedes descargarla en tu mvl desde Playstore (Android) o desde Appstore (iOS Apple).



Youtube: ‘Learning time with Timmy’

En este canal de Youtube también podemos encontrar divertidos vídeos que ayudarán a nuestros peques a aprender nuevas palabras en muy poquito tiempo J

Let´s Clan RTVE

Otra manera sencilla de enseñar inglés a los niños en casa es ver con ellos algún fragmento breve de los programas y dibujos animados en inglés que más les gusten, ya que esto les permite escuchar la pronunciación de palabras y frases nuevas o conocidas de boca de personajes que les son familiares.
En Let’sClan de RTVE  encontraréis muchísimos programas en inglés, algunos con sus fichas didácticas, para bebés y niños de hasta más de 8 años.

Juegos interactivos

En la web del British Council también podemos encontrar juegos para todas las edades y con diferentes temas. Para repasar la ropa, los animales, la comida, etc.

Juegos y flashcards

Los juegos ayudan a que aprender sea divertido, agradable y atractivo. Las flashcards (tarjetas de aprendizaje con imágenes) se pueden emplear en muchos de ellos, como el Memory (juego de hacer parejas) y el juego de “¿Cuál es la carta que falta”. A través de esta web podéis fabricaros vuestras propias tarjetas o bien descargarlas ya listas para imprimir.

Rimas y canciones
Gracias a las rimas y canciones en inglés los niños/as repiten pequeñas frases de forma sencilla, natural y espontánea. Además de entretenerse y divertirse un montón con ellas, le vendrán de maravilla para practicar sin darse cuenta el ritmo, el acento y la entonación. En cuanto escuchan una rima o canción unas cuantas veces, los niños empiezan a tararearla o a cantarla enseguida, y si cuentan con un apoyo visual, como un vídeo animado o una marioneta, entienden la letra mucho mejor.

En el siguiente enlace pueden acceder a una carpeta compartida en Dropbox en la cual encontrarán vídeos, canciones y algunas fichas sobre diferentes temáticas.
