  • 2. Incorporate listening and drawing activities with Pear Deck: Pear Deck is the perfect way to make your Google Slides interactive. Try using the Pear Deck Chrome extension for listening and drawing activities: Add a Pear Deck interactive “Drawing” slide and read a description aloud.For example, I will read the following description aloud (in Spanish) to my Spanish I classes: “The boy is tall, thin, and has black, curly hair and green eyes. The boy is feeling happy because it is warm and sunny outside. He likes to listen to music and read, but he does not like to study or play sports.”As I read off this description, students draw what they hear. Once their drawings are complete, I ask them to restate what they drew aloud. You can also ask them to write about what they drew. Students are enthused when I project all of their drawings on the board—each student’s drawing is different and has its own style, even though everyone heard the same description.
  • Host an online discussion via Padlet: Padlet allows students to view a prompt and respond on an online discussion board. If you want to engage students in a digital discussion rather than an oral one, you can have them respond with text, images, videos, or links.

      "The conversations were never lost" - this is a great point!  Students could read and re-read past conversations.  With a traditional speaking/listening conversation, it isn't possible to read at all, let alone re-read.

  • Charlie needed an alternative means to participate, and a backchannel would have provided him with that outlet.

  • TodaysMeet would have let teachers create private chat rooms so that students could ask questions or leave comments during class. A Padlet wall might have fueled students to share their ideas as text, images, videos, and links posted to a digital bulletin board. The open response questions available in a student response system like Socrative or InfuseLearning could have become discussion prompts to give each student an opportunity to share his or her ideas before engaging in class discussion.

Mix It Up! Authentic Activities for the World Language Classroom | Edutopia - 15 views

  • But true authenticity comes from the activities we use during class time, leaving an impact on the communicative skills of our students.
  • Use the language proficiency site developed by UTexas to gain access to native Spanish speakers talking about a variety of themes. These are conveniently divided into proficiency levels.

      I tried this activity by having each group research then report about an Arabic speaking country of their choice and the activity was a great success. They seemed to have had a lot of fun, presented short clear sentences (for the most part) that also provided factual and relevant material, and it opened the door for some spontaneous cultural themes and relevant dicussions.

  • If we make activities genuine, our students will be much more inclined to participate, acquiring new knowledge through the process.

      These are great resources!
  • remember these rules when selecting activities: They must be authentic. They should always be engaging. Activities should be varied. They need to be focused around the unit theme. Perhaps most importantly, they should force students to use the target language.

  • You can create three different sets of QR codes to distribute to students or use a QR code generator like Visualead to create codes that have similar colors or background images.
  • For a social studies lesson, you might want your students to scan a set of codes that takes one group to National Geographic's website, another group to an image of a world map, and a third group to an encyclopedia entry about explorers.

      I've never heard of using QR codes this way in the classroom. I think the element of mystery or not knowing exactly what other groups are working on would be very intriguing for students.
  • try sending them to the same website with different activities to complete.
  • elenistef7 on 01 Aug 15
     
    Create different color QR codes in order to separate the groups by task. Differentiated instruction but more discreet with the use of QR codes.
