Interaction: Edpuzzle


 I liked the Edpuzzle Space oddity from Marta´s blog, so I have used some of her activities with one of my groups.

https://edpuzzle.com/media/617fbc0524dfe4412f4734fd

The objectives of this session are:

·                    Learn new vocabulary related to space and space travelling.

·                    Revise present simple and present continuous.

·                    Listen to Bristish music and get to know David Bowie.

·                    Read and understand a story (with visual aid).

·                    Sing a song focusing on pronunciation.

I included the video in the following sequence of activities:

·                    In class, they watched the music video and answered the questions.

·                  Then, we watched the video together and read the lyrics. They had to summarize  the story.

·                    Finally, we listened to the song and sang together.


The results have been succesful and the students enjoyed the activity.

Thank you and see you soon!

Edpuzzle cinema

Imagen
  In the last few weeks, we are studying in class the topic: “cinema and movies”, so I have decided to choose two short YouTube videos - from the movies “Lord of the Rings” and “Spiderman”- which have been cut using Edpuzzle. Apart from being popular movies for many of my students, my choice is based on the importance of the dialogues that appear in both scenes. Besides, we can use them to practise several skills as well as reviewing irregular verbs and other contents. The sequence of activities was: First, the students watched the videos at home – I flipped the class in this part – to look for possible unknown words or expressions in the dialogues of both films, and I asked them to write down all the verbs that appear in both clips too.   Then, we watched both videos together in class and reviewed the new words and expressions they have found in the dialogues previously. Afterwards, I wrote in the whiteboard all the verbs they have written down from the videos at home a...
