Hello Marta!
ResponderEliminarYour blog is very useful, with a lot of activities for many ages. This activity is very funny, the kids can practice speaking and listening enjoying like an actors. I was try to share a video from youtube.com in my blog but it doesn´t allow it to me.
Congratulations for your fantastic job! I can extract a lot of ideas to work in class.
Regards, Belén.
Es muy fácil Belén. Solo tienes que meterte en editar entrada y pinchar en el icono de insertar vídeo (es como una plaqueta) y eliges ya si lo quieres insertar desde youtube o desde tu ordenador...

ResponderEliminarHello!
ResponderEliminarIn my opinion you have done a great job in this blog. You have created original activities for kids of different ages. You have proposed interesting topics. In fact, I have done an activity about seasons and yours is very didactical too.
On the other hand, children will improve reading, speaking and listening in the activity that includes drama. In my opinion it is a good idea to work in teams because they have to interact, deal and solve situations. Besides they have to speak and perform leaving shyness aside in order to enhance pronunciation. I also consider that the final video about the witch is very amusing and useful.
I would like to do your activities in my English lessons.
Congratulations Marta!

Hi Marta,
ResponderEliminarI really like your blog, it has different activities for different ages and to improve different skills (speaking, reading, listening, etc.). Also, some of them children can work in group, so they are active and integrative activities. It is a useful blog for students of English and for English teacher. I think is a good idea to do a drama activity with students, so they can enhance their pronunciation.
Congratulations!!!
Hi!
ResponderEliminarThanks for your blog, it's very creative, the story "Room on the groom" is not very usual and I think children appreciate this kind of things, going away from the usual tales; the activities on it are very interesting too.
The rest of the activities follow the same line and children will learn and enjoy at the same time, everything is very colourful and easy to follow and when you are in you don't have any problems to go into the activities and work on them, congratulations!
