Welcome to teacher Chiara's blog! Questo blog è principalmente rivolto ai miei alunni con l'obiettivo di stimolare in loro interesse e curiosità per la lingua inglese che ci permette di comunicare con tante persone di culture diverse dalla nostra.
"A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality" (John Lennon)
This is year is 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death and students of classes II As and II Bs will learn something about him and his works.
In this thinglink on Shakespeare there are some info on the most famous English poet and playwriter. There are videos on some of his plays, videos and texts on his life, activities to learn facts about him having fun and some more interesting material.
After having watched all this, part in class and part at home, students will add a post on the padlet below writing either something on his life, or on his works in general or about a sonnet or a play we studied and they liked.
Last two weeks students of classes 3E and 3As have been studying the future forms in English and we focused on the future form with will.
I created some padlets for them and they wrote their ideas, opinions and wishes on them.
There are some mistakes but never mind, the most important aspect in this moment is to communicate what is in their and our mind about school and towns in the future.
Some of the things they said are already reality somewhere both in Italy and in other countries, some other will come true, at least we hope so, and some others ... hope not!
To carry out this activities the students brainstormed at school and shared ideas, then, at home, they wrote posts n the padltes I had created for them and shared in edmodo.
After having let them exercise with "will" I gave them a photocopy of a song and we listened to it, they carried out the tasks on it and we enjoyed singing it!
