The activity that I chose to use in my own class is the one that Belal posted on the World Languages Activities slides that are created by the students of this Classroad class.
Since the topic of endangered animals is not in any of my lesson plans, I will
adopt this activity for other topics.
For example, my activity maybe like this:
Description: Students
create a song to help others learn about the body parts and their
descriptions. For example, oval eyes,
round face, tiny nose, short hair etc…
Adaptation/Technology: The students
will choose one person in their life be it their father, friend or significant
other. They can include their photos if available. Then they need to collect adjectives from
their book that they've already learned.
They make a list and work with those adjectives. If they needed different ones, they can use Google Translate to look up rhyming ones. When done with their created songs, they will
sing the songs and record them using an online tool such as Vocaroo or Speakpipe, then they embed/upload
the audio recording to their class on Moodle.
They will include the lyrics as well.
The challenge is whether Moodle will allow posting the lyrics side by side with the
audio. We have to figure that one out. Moodle
is the platform that I use for my classes. If Moodle fails, we can do the presentation is on voicethread. The students can record the songs in a comment and type the lyrics in another comment.
