Infographic

1. Infographic tool
AbiesI had never heard of this thing so, again, I'm delighted to learn about this kind of stuff and assume that my colleagues and students will be too. If I can get to put it to good use in our library at the EOI Ávila, that is! I chose the first of the options in the instructions, so for my example I'm using Piktochart. I went throught the video and I liked the look of it and then I saw a template with a little pine tree. For the obvious reason that Abies has a little pine tree as a logo, I chose that template, even if the topic of the Template is something quite different. But let's see if I can get this thing to work....

By the way. In earlier Posts I had inserted some tif pictures that didn't look too good because their background wasn't invisible. Now I'm using png and it looks much cooler, you know

So here's a link to my first Experience with Piktochart. I'm sure there's room for improvement. Also the Info is not at all valid or realistic. So beware!

Jenny's Bear

I'm a student in 2nbE and I've read the book Jenny's Bear by Michael Ratnett ¬ June Goulding) It's a book for little children, but I liked it because I like bears and the language is quite simple (my English isn't very good) The book is not very big and has many pictures.  It's about a girl who loves bears and meets a real bear. They become friends I won't tell you how it finishes but there are surprises. The language wan't very difficult but I had to look up a few words like: cosy den shook (from the verb shake) I read the book in 20 minutes I recommend it and I hope you enjoy it José Mª González (Group 2nbE)

Superlectores

Agatha Christie read about 200 books every year, so she could be considered a superlectora . Theodore Roosevelt, the American President read at least a book every day and sometimes two or three. I had not heard about Badges (Insignias) as a kind of reward for students. The concept is new to me. First I didn't take it very seriously, especially in connection with reading: it seems to me that the reward for reading a book is... Reading the book! The pleasure we derive from this input of information and imagination is reward in itself. At any rate, I started checking out the badge-making sites and the first one our course recommended was MakeBadges . It's an easy little program and I created badges for the above-mentioned Superlectores. I saw that under Icon you can upload any image you like and it will appear inside the badge. You can even adjust the size of the image. Together with the old look of the photographs you immediately get a pretty cool badge! Then, of course, I consi...

1.3 Recomendación de recursos para seleccionar los fondos

§ 1.3 Recomendación de recursos para seleccionar los fondos 1. With the Database of Abies2 we get little more than a list of titles and a genre division of fiction and science fiction if the teachers in charge of registering the works fill in these options. The main way of choosing for our students is judging the book by its cover and the blurb on the back. The graded readers that we have, especially for our students at A2-B1 levels, are divided between levels 1-6 according to their vocabulary count. But we don't have a descriptive catalogue like the one I saw under the Tools in acquisition and selection called  Lupa del Cuento . I loved the layout and the summaries of the stories and I'm especially interested in the cross-reference section called Temática as shown below: The layout of Lupa del Cuento is very attractive with the cover stamp, the coloured toolbars and the tasteful and alluring synopsis. I just read the one for the first book  Bajo el mismo ciel...
