Ετικέτα: flipgrid project

This project is for my 4th Graders and it is based on the Coursebook Unit 5 Lesson 3 Habits and Customs.  Firstly, using the Quest button on my interactive book in class I gave my students the stimulus and the idea to look for more information. Because this would be a presentation project I decided to use flipgrid app so they can get the chance to enjoy and practise at the same time. After, students formed their own groups and I structured the project in steps which I gave them in writing.    

STEP 1: 

Find information about Christmas customs in other countries and talk about similarities and differences.

You can look at:

• www.gnto.gr, the site of the Greek National Tourism Organization.
• http://dim-sapon.rod.sch.gr, the website of the Primary School of Sapes.
• http://11dim-evosm.thess.sch.gr, the site of the 11th Primary School of
  Evosmos, Thessaloniki.
• http://dim-rizou.pel.sch.gr, the website of the Primary School of Rizos.
• www.haef.gr, the site of the Athens College.

STEP 2:

Write down your information and separate it into parts so that everybody in your team can present one part.

 For example,

• Season and the weather
• Decorations
• Food and drinks
• Events

You can use expressions like “In Greece, people ….. whereas in Great Britain ……”

Once you have all the necessary information organized you should practise your presentation.

This is a project based on 5th Grade Student’s book Unit 2, Lesson 1, Exercise H (Portfolio). The educational purpose was to use reverse classroom practice so as to give students more time to practise their speaking skills. To this end, I asked my students to form pairs and suggested their using flipgrid which is a Microsoft educational tool that extends classroom time and space. So I structured this project in the following steps:

STEP 1:

Educational Scenario:

Imagine you are a reporter from the school newspaper. You are taking a similar interview with a famous person you like and admire, like the one in Lesson 2, page 30. It can be an interview with an athlete, a singer, an actor/ actress, a writer, a painter, etc.

STEP 2:

Write 4 or 5 questions and add the answers you got. Use magazines, newspapers, encyclopedias, the Internet, or the class books for your Greek lessons – eg. Anthologio for information.

This is a 4th Grade crosscurricular project and it is based on the school student’s book Unit 1 Lesson 3 “This is my school!” Students will take an interview from a school teacher in Greek so as to gather the information needed and then they will use flipgrid app to present an interview between them with the linguistic purpose of practising their speaking skills. The project is structured in steps and instructions were given as follows: 

Step 1: 

Read the questions carefully and write down the answers.

• Where is your school?
