American music

The students in 2nd ESO from IES Vicente Medina in Archena (Murcia) were working on American music as part of their project Crossing the pond with 2º ESO“. 
They had to find out information about the history of American music, and talk about this topic. Then, they prepared some songs and recorded them.

Thanks to Inmaculada López, the English teacher for proposing this motivating activity. She told us how their students enjoyed and learned a lot.

Digital slidebooks for students

Biteslide is a  tool where you can create classes and design awesome slidebooks with collaborative presentations.

After registering and logging in as a teacher, you can add classes, start a project and then create a slidebook within that project.

The free version is a bit limiting, but you are given the chance to invite other teachers and so get 5 extra students logins for free.

The tool has several styles to choose from, with their corresponding backgrounds, frames, labels and stickers which are organised in themes so as to match the needs of your project.

Then you gather the photos and videos to include in your slidebook, drag them in the order you would like the slides to appear, and you are ready to design.

Just let your students edit the slidebook adding extras and when it is finished, print it, download it. or embed it in your own digital place.

Working sports in English class

From Capileira (Granada),  this year our pupils in 3rd level Primary have been working a lesson about sports. We had done some interesting activities that we want to share everybody.

First, we were collecting vocabulary in the notebook, the most important and popular sports than they knew.
Later, everyone made pictures using "can" and "can't".

Sports by Slidely Slideshow

Then, they made a survey asking to their family, peers, friends,.. Here you can see all the results (with text and graphics) in this document.

We recorded audio also.




Finally, we worked in groups for showing a sport and do a presentation. In this moment, this work isn't ready to share. It'll be published soon.

I hope you like our works!
