    Really nice!! Using the ICTs in the FL classroom has many tangible benefits. The multimedia possibilities allow us to introduce content in diverse ways and thus appeal to learning styles or "intelligences" of more children.

The "Whole Language" Approach: Teaching Reading - 1 views

  •  
    Hello! I want to share with you this blog entry about the top-down processing of language. "Whole language" is a method of teaching children to read by recognizing words as whole pieces of language. Whole language is an approach to teaching reading and writing which differs in many ways from the traditional system in which most of us learned to read and write. Proponents of the whole language philosophy believe that language should not be broken down into letters and combinations of letters and "decoded." Instead, they believe that language is a complete system of making meaning, with words functioning in relation to each other in context.

Digital Storytelling in the Foreign Language Classroom - 1 views

  •  
    This article is about the educational uses of Digital Storytelling. Telling and listening to stories is an ancient tradition that can benefit foreign language learners of all ages, languages, and levels of proficiency. Stories contain linguistic, paralinguistic, discourse, and cultural features that provide the comprehensible input and output that students need to develop their oral skills. As with traditional storytelling, you tell stories using computer-based tools, usually contain some mixture of images, text, recorded audio, narration, video clips and/or music.

Artigal's Method - 0 views

  •  
    Hello everyone! This article is about the Artigal's Method. It is based on short stories that promote communication in the English language throughout staging. Each short story, adapted to the level of the class, presents different didactic material that, by means of characters and their actions, makes children learn without realising it. So, what was senseless for kids at the beginning is at the end something that has sense in the English language, using the English words they have listened, memorized and learned.
