  Working on writing with Storyjumper Using Storyjumpler to Encourage Creativity and Collaboration in the Classroom This week we had to work on writing skills so, I decided to use Storyjumper, an engaging comic creation tool, to help my students develop both their creative and English language skills. We tried to use Pixton but we were told to pay to use it and we found no way to access the free trial, as explained in the course. The task was part of the unit and, instead of doing the typical activity I do in class, I decided to use this tool to reinforce language structures and encourage imagination. Here’s how I organized the activity and reflected on its impact. This activity has been done with a group of students in 1º ESO.  How did you organize the groups? I divided the class into small groups of three to four students. This allowed for collaboration while ensuring that everyone had a chance to participate actively. I made sure the groups were diverse in terms of la...

  EDPUZZLe Edpuzzle is a powerful tool for making video-based learning more interactive and engaging. It's an interesting and useful tools to practice the language in class using authentic material. I often use it in my classes as these videos are more engaging than traditional lectures and having interactive questions make students be more focused on the topic we are dealing with. Also, it reinforces comprehension while watching.  I have recently used this tool with my students of 2º ESO . They are learning about modal verbs, specifically CAN and COULD , and as they have a good level I've introduced them BE ABLE TO .

They have already studied them so, it is a way to check how much they remember. Also, at home, they have watch a short video about them so they can familiarize with the concepts stu...

  "Reflect on Reading habits" Looking at these pictures, I realize how my reading habits have changed over time. Reading has always been an important part of my life but, in the same way we can see in the pictures, the way I engage with books has changed significantly over the years. From childhood, when my reading choices were largely influenced by my parents or teachers, to adulthood, when I finally have the freedom to explore literature on my own terms, my journey as a reader has been one of both growth and discovery. Looking at the pictures, I particularly relate to the second and third images. The second photograph, which depicts an adult guiding a child through a book, reminds me of my early experiences as a reader in Spanish. Like many children, I started reading with the help of my parents and teachers, who introduced me to books that nurtured my curiosity and comprehension skills. Over time, as I gained independence, I developed a taste for thrillers in Spanish, dr...
