iPads in the Primary classroom


Hello,

I have started my blog in Septembre 2012. For the first time I am using my iPad to teach Spanish in a primary school in London. All classteachers will have an ipad too. Exciting!

I asked for help and Nicky Hockly gave me directions! This is what she
recommended:

    1. A detailed description of a project that used Voice Thread on iPads in a primary classroom, and from the same blog, how to create a visual dictionary on the iPad – in Spanish:  dictionary

    3. Karin Timaşin and Cigdem Ugur in Turkey set up a project involving mobile phones over several classes, and which they describe in a video interview on Seth Dicken's blog. This project could equally have been carried out using iPads: use your phone

I am particularly proud of this sample of work. It comes from a learner that has only started the lessons in September, one hour per week. The learner is 15 years old, bilingual (Portuguese/English), and currently home educating and preparing for taking GCSEs in June 2018. It is the first time the student is taking Spanish lessons and started as a  complete beginner. What I really like in the letter shown below is the accuracy. The language is appropriate for the situation and purpose of communication. The learner uses what learns in other subjects (i.e. English lessons) and applies this confidently.  Tarea: Completa la carta. Paco, un estudiante de español, va a pasar unos días en tu casa.  Tú le escribes un carta y le hablas de tu familia.  Puedes usar este diccionario. Ej. http://www.rae.es !Hola, Paco!

What is Skype education? A free and easy way for teachers to open up their classroom. Meet new people, talk to experts, share ideas and create amazing learning experiences with teachers from around the world.

My aim with this project was to create  a list of do's in collaboration with a classteacher. This is what we came up with, our list of Do's:  1. share a collaborative doc that you can access at anytime. 2. take your time to test video and audio. 3. start sessions with a short introductory game or iceb...
