This week was very exciting for my kids and me because we have prepared our news for publication in the Internet but there was no access to it during the whole week.
At the end of the school week the Internet appeared and we managed to publish our texts without pictures, because the Internet was very slow. So I had to copy pictures and download them at home.
Still I am happy because my objectives were about teaching writing not about launching images. Besides, in class I could observe my students trying to launch them and I can say that they do it even better than me. Here is the URL:
Of course there will be some improvements. Also we are going to learn how to write comments. Still the main job has been done.
It should be noted that this week brought me lots of useful readings and experiences in using different tools.
I think it should be mentioned about the Regional ITE Conference which I participated in this week and shared my experiences of doing the Oregon University online course. My presentation was about 21st century teachers of English and it was awarded with a diploma.

I have forgotten to write about partner observation of the Project Reports. It was very useful for me to read about Hassan's project and get his feedback on my report.

ОтветитьУдалитьLooking at your student news blog was amazing! I could see your "kids" and really imagine what your additions to the class were bringing to them. Wonderful! They are great kids, and they are our future. I honestly felt touched in a deep level when I saw them and read their news features.
