Quarantine Kahoot

Hello families!

El Kahoot és una molt bona eina per repassar/treballar continguts de manera divertida i challenging. Als alumnes els encanta i més d'un heu preguntat "com funciona". A continuació trobareu una petita guia per posar en marxa Kahoots a casa!

No és una plataforma exclusiva per l'Anglès; hi ha milers de Kahoots sobre múltiples temes i idiomes, per tant, el podeu fer servir per practicar coses de llengua, mates, ciències... o simplement per passar una bona estona plegats. 

1. Aquest joc funciona en qualsevol dispositiu conectat a internet. 
1. Qui faci de "profe" ha d'anar a KAHOOT.COM
2. Qui faci de "concursant" ha d'anar a KAHOOT.IT

Aquesta es la pantalla del "concursant". HA D'ESPERAR per escriure el PIN.
El PIN el dona qui fa de "profe"

COM OBTENIR EL PIN; instruccions per qui fa de profe.

Un cop fem click sobre un Kahoot podrem veure les preguntes que conté i així decidir si el volem jugar o no (no sempre les preguntes responen al nivell del nen/a, per tant és important llegirles primer). Un cop ho tinguem clar farem click a PLAY.

Ara si ja estem preparats per començar. Ja ens surt el PIN que han de copiar "els concursants" a les seves pantalles.

1. Pronoms
2. Més pronoms 
3. Was/were
4. Més was/were

I per acabar, dos videos d'aquells que ens agrada mirar al final de la classe. 

See you soon!!

Song Check

Fifth Graders learned and sang one of my favourites songs. It's called Coldest Winter and it was made by Kanye West in 2008. They analized it and realized that it's a slow and sad song... it talks about a break up and how difficult will be for the guy to fall in love again.

We performed a listening activity with it and then we checked the lyrics on the blackboard/screen. I've spotted them singing the song around the school... couldn't be happier with them. 

I love to use the projector this way... very versatile

The lyrics!

Riddle Day!

Fifth Graders discovered what a Riddle is last week! They looked for Riddles on the Internet and each student brought one (or two) to school to be read in class. We voted for the best ones, and the ones selected are now hanging in the classroom. 

New Year's Resolutions

New year, new me they say... We started a new term today! The first lesson in all Primary was about the New Year's Resolutions. We discovered what a "Resolution" is and elaborated a list with all the good ideas to improve ourselves in this new year we all just began. Take a look at the pictures!

Autonomy is the word. I'm really proud of them.

Mannequin Challenge

Learning a language isn't only repetitive structures nor tones of new words and vocabulary... The learner need to be immersed in the language's culture! 

What's hot in the U.S.A. lately? The mannequin challenge, that's right! We did our very own MC with 5th and 6th Graders. We had a great time!

Time Capsule

The rumor was extended... they liked the running dictation a lot! I had no choice, Fifth Graders asked for it and we played the game.

Question Game!

Fifth Graders played a question game last week to improve their reading skills and to find out which team will design next week's game! 

For this first round, they were allowed to form the groups on their own. We all realized two things with this: yes, it is cool to have your friends in the group... but it is even cooler to have in it a classmate that knows English!

With the rotating sheet dynamic (foli rotatori) the groups wrote the questions and the right answer. We also used colored cards for the true/false questions! They only had one minute to do the whole thing... so they had to think quick!

Write fast, think faster!

The answer was TRUE, so green cards up!

Decisions, decisions! 

These ladies insisted on taking a group pic...

This group took the game to another level! 

You see that blue fence? That means they are serious about it!

The blue fence again... nobody cheated at least

Group 3 will be designing next week's game!
