Learning with LazyTown.

Good morning children, How are you today? Hope you have entered, watched and played with everything related to LazyTown. Now I have added more fun things to our blog, I have added a link to a spelling list of the words from our Healthy habits unit. On the page you can play a lot of games with the vocabulary to learn the forms and spelling correctly in a fun way. I have also added a help tool if you have hard time understanding "About LazyTown" you can copy the text to the link Rewordify under interesting sites on the left side, and the program changes all difficult words to easier words so you will understand the text better. Next step is to choose your favorite person in the LazyTown TV show. The students that are working together can't choose the same character, because now you are going to create a conversation between the two persons. You have to be sure what your character likes to eat, to do and if he needs to change some of his daily habits to become healthy. Use the vocabulary from our unit in the conversation. The last step is to realise a conversation. The best way is to write down the questions and answers and practice with you peer. Then you go interesting sites again and enter the link Firefox - Hello, you should use the browser Firefox to use this link. If you have the icon on the right side of your screen you just have to click on it and you can start your conversation. If not you should click our link and click try Firefox - Hello and all the steps are explained to put the icon in your browser. When you finish you send me the link of your conversation in a commentary in the blog. That way you can listen to all of your peer conversations and learn from each other. It will be great fun, don't be shy, we are learning with together! If you have some problem you don't want to put here just tell me and I will help you. I am so excited to see the outcome!! Good luck! Your teacher, Gudrun Helga

Healthy food and exercises with persons from LazyTown.

Good afternoon to my great Science class, Did you like the video? This is our unit's TV program. As we spoke in class about today, I am going to create an online task for you. It takes few steps to do it, so there will be more than one entry for you to follow. You have to work in pairs, that means two and two together. This will be real fun if you really do every step I explain in the entries. First of all you have to decide with whom you want to work with. Next step is to get to know our TV program and its persons, together. You can find the official site for LazyTown in this blog under interesting links. You should navigate on the site, you have a link called About LazyTown to read about it. There is also a link about sportscandy, which is Sportacus favorite, and his Superhero moves. Then you have links of two short chapter under fun videos, remember with YouTube videos you can put subtitles so it is easier for you to understand what is going on in the chapters. If you have seen it on the TV and you know it, that is great but now you have to watch it in English. Learn the person's names in English and the vocabulary from LazyTown. Start thinking about which is your favorite person in the show. It is exactly the vocabulary that is in our unit now, so we can enjoy learning it together. If you want to see more chapters just look them up in google, there are a lot. This is enough for today, tomorrow I will put the next entry for you. Enjoy the links of videos, games and the offical site until then! Your teacher, Gudrun Helga

New links.

Hi students, how are you today? I hope you are great and ready to afront the first small task here on this blog. The first thing you are supposed to do is discover and try the links I have put on the right. Then you have to tell me if they all work and if you like them. Lastly it would be great if you search internet for new links to put here or maybe you already now some to tell me right away. I want your commentaries under this entry and we will talk about it in class next week. Hope you enjoy!! Your teacher, Gudrun Helga

Our new blog.

Our new classroom blog. Welcome to our new blog, this will be our tool to add new vocabulary, definitions, games and ICT tools. If you have other ideas, don't hesitate to put them here, they will be studied in class and added if we do agree. It has to be linked in someway with the content we are learning. I hope you will participate, because there will be exercises, tasks and activities to do. The main idea is to make it fun and useful, if nobody uses it, it will never be useful or fun. Let's have fun together with lots of your entries with new ideas. Your teacher, Gudrun Helga
