There is always something new to learn. This week has been spectacular just like the others. Knowing about all the useful tools ANVILL offers has been heartwarming because I know we as teachers have lots of resources to work with for changing the way we used to teach. The most I like about ANVILL is the idea of recording voices, so we can give feedback and students love the idea.

But the best thing about this week was the creation of my own NICENET class. As I said in my other post THAT was something that caught my attention from the very beginning. I wondered how I could create mine! And this week gave this big opportunity. It was quite easy to create it. Nevertheless I got some troubles when my students started using it because for the explanation I used my laptop computer only, so some of them misunderstood some information, but now everybody is doing a great job. I am really happy to use it for my classes.
These are my little kids who I will develop my project with. They are clever and lovely students, and very disciplined, that is why I chose them for working on the project. I really like working with them. I love this group of children.
I think reading others reports let us get new ideas. I read Ale’s one and it is fantastic, because she wants her students be better in their speaking skill and in their cultural knowledge. Great Job Ale!
After reading and applying all the new expertise we have leant in this course made me feel I won’t ever be the same teacher I was 8 weeks ago.
We are in the week 8 and we begin the countdown for the completion of this practical and enriching course. Two weeks left, and I am looking forward to starting the new week learning. Here I go week 9!!
Hi Katty,
ReplyDeleteI have the same feeling that you have about being new teacher after experiencing this course.

Dear Katty
ReplyDeleteI wanted to post in your blog because I really liked what you posted on Nicenet. It's exciting you have built your own nicenet for your class. I should try doing the same. We are learning about these new tools, which were unknown for most of us, It would be a waste if we don't get to use them. Hope you get the most from your children when you use Nicenet.
Regards
ALEX
PS: Your children look cute!!!!!
