Funny stories using writing skills

-

My next contribution to this blog is to propose that you make a rotating folio with your students. This activity consists of taking a sheet of paper per row, and each one must write a phrase, in this case related to one of the sports, without knowing what the previous classmate has written.

When you finish writing you must make a double on the sheet and pass it on to the next person, thus several stories will be created at the same time, with all the students participating.

They will cooperatively create very funny stories while improving their writing skills and their creativity.

Here I tell you some of the activities you can do with them: Guess the word: the child only sees the drawing and has to guess the name of the sport.

The rest will have to guess the sport he has drawn. Look for your p...

I would like to share this interview that I found searching the Internet for the British Council website where they talk to a swimmer, with which the students will work on their listening skills. They will be able to listen to the audio twice and must fill in the gaps with the exact words that appear in the audio. Below, the complete transcription so that each of you can decide which words you hide from the students to carry out the activity. I would make approximately 10 gaps, a mix of easy and difficult words. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcRFaUUBxb4 TRANSCRIPTION Interviewer:  Hello, Dan. Dan:  Hi. Interviewer:  Can you tell me about a typical day in your life for the school magazine? Dan:  Yeah, sure. Interviewer:  So, what time do you get up? Dan:  Oh, I get up very early. I get up every day at 5 o’clock and go to the pool. Then I swim from 6 o’clock to 8 o’clock. Interviewer:  You get up at 5 o’clock? Wow, that’s early! Dan:  Yeah. Then a...
