Welcome to fabulous Comic-Post.

WELCOME TO THIS NEW POST


Welcome to this new blog post. Writing this post makes me especially excited because I am going to show you a very fun and didactic tool to use with students.

This post wants to dedicate special importance to comics in the classroom. The comics in the classroom is a pedagogical tool that teachers can use in a cross-curricular way, so when used well they can be very beneficial. For example, we can use the same comic for the ethics, natural sciences and arts and crafts or ITC class.

Although comics can be done on paper, this time we are going to learn how to make them digitally. To make the comic that I show you I have used the website Storyboardthat.com.

This website has a large number of options and a very visual and extensive menu, so the students will need our help to make the comic. However, it is a very complete tool that offers many options in its free version. The options give us a lot of variety to create a comic and always in a safe way for students, the content is adapted to their age and they will enjoy while they learn. 

Here's an example: I want to focus the example on coexistence in the classroom, on the importance of respecting all classmates, helping each other and working together. Also in the importance of not leaving anyone behind and offering our help to others, because everything we do for others, others will do for us. As a result, the happiness and wellness this kind of situations cause in everyone.


 

I understand that it may seem somewhat complex and long at first. Don't think that! 

With Storyboardthat.com teachers will be able to take full advantage of the ICT resources in the classroom and develop in a very appropriate and easy way the competences established in the curriculum, including digital competence.. Just try it!!

                                    See you!! Take care!!

It is called "Mindmap" and it has a series of characteristics and benefits that are very suitable for the classroom. Next, I mention the strongest points of this tool : 1. Show information in a clear and summarized way. 2. Visualize the most important aspects of a topic. 3 . Sequence ideas in an schematized way to clarify or solve problems. These are three advantages of using mindmaps, but there are so many!! It only depends on your imagination and creativity. Here you can see an example: In this case the topic is " Puberty ", from Natural Science subject. Looking at this mindmap students are able to find the main changes that women and men suffer during this vital and natural process called puberty. The web page that I have used has been the following one:  Bubbl.us      The web page used is one of many that we can...
