Project 3

CREATING FLASHCARDS AND MIND MAPS

The third project is divided in three parts that consists in drawing up: flashcards, mind map and interactive poster with plays, videos and activities. We followed the next steps to do this job:

First of all, we chose the course for the destinataries of this project, 4th of Primary. Secondly, we selected the contents of the Decree 108/2014 we liked best. Next, we voted what topics we prefered. Then, we decided this content: Festivities and Costumes: Halloween, Christmas, Easter and Carnival. Finally, we decided to work with vocabulary related to the most representative food and accessories of this festivities. Therefore, we can work four concepts for each one of them.  

Once we took these decisions, we distributed the tasks. 

FLASHCARDS

The flashcards are an interactive and motivational game for the children. With them the pupils learn new vocabulary in a fun, educational and visual way. The flashcards are composed by an image with its concept. By this way, the students will learn vocabulary faster and can easily associate it. With the flashcard you can perform multiple activities and games. We have created thirty flashcards with the Quizlet program. Each flashcard contains an image, its concept and its pronunciation in both languages.

MIND MAP

Firstly, we create a sketch in a blank sheet of paper to distribute and organize the vocabulary. For this elaboration we have used Mindmeinster program. Next, we introduce the data in the program. After that, we marked the worked items with the different colours (food and accessories). As a result, our mind map is very visual and representative. 

INTERACTIVE POSTER

Our interactive poster contains a serie of games and educationals videos prepared to work on the selected vocabulary. The pupils will use the ICT to perform of activities.The activities and videos which are used in the interactive poster have been developed by us with the Educaplay app. Finally, we have created a visual and interactive poster so that our students are better to acquire selected vocabulary.
