Bleak House: an audio book!

Students of class II H of the school "L. Da Vinci - O. Nucula" in Terni created an audio book of the Novel "Bleak House" written by Charlse Dickens.
This activity was part of the "BFG: Books for Friends are Great" etwinning project.
The pupils chose to read this novel and after having read it in small groups they created storyboards using the app  http://www.storyboardthat.com/ to let their French friends read and enjoy the book.
French pupils did the same with another book "Deadly Jobs".
After the storyboards Italian students also created an audio book using spark.adobe.com.
The book is not perfect, there are both spelling and pronunciation mistakes, but the students had the chance of reading, creating storyboards and also practicing their reading skills.

Here is the result.

Bleak House: the storyboards!

Students of class II H of the school "L. Da Vinci-O. Nucula" in Terni read a children version of Bleak House written by Charles Dickens as an activity for the etwinning project "B. F. G. - Books for Friends are Great".

They worked in pairs or small groups and read a chapter of the novel each. After reading they created a storyboard on paper with the most important event of the chapter they have read.

Once they had the paper storyboard ready they used the app storyboardthat to create their own storyboard online.

It was a long and quite demanding work for them but they were engaged and did a great job.

Here is the result.
