What a great, enlighting idea!
Brilliant!
Lovely blog, Erika!And what a great selection of tasks!!! @> (that was the heart, wasn't it?)
I wonder how you plan to use it with your students... Why did you choose a blog for this task?
Way to go!
Gladys
I love this idea! You've added a whole new dimension to blogging!
Dear Gladys,
Erika was really afraid of venturing into blogging to try out this activity. I convinced her it would be better than a webpage, as we generally do, because students could interact while they did that in our computer lab, and at the end they could post their answers, read one another's options,and practice the grammar point at the same time. We were inspired by Paddy's idea of using blogs to practice grammar! We thought it would be really fun. In the past, we would probably think about using filamentality to develop the task, but the layout is not as neat and modern as the blog's. Besides, we are using a medium students are used to.
I'm sure later on Erika can add her own perspective on the activity.
Beijos,
Carla
Great activity! I did it with my flex students!Check it out!
