The tecnological tool, I am going to use is: gosynth, because students prefer record their voice than making a video, Even parents do not accept it since they think their children can be in danger.

The methodology, I am going to use in my class is: the differenciated approach because  using diferent activities I will be able to motivate students to use the English in an oral way. Furthermore this method benefits a wide range of students, from those with learning disabilities to those who are considered high ability. Moreover during the whole classes we are going to work with activities such as: autonomous work, groups activities, peer feedback, ask questions, listening exercises, writing exercises, watching videos.

At the end students will participate in the English Song Festival and make a project about Recycling in the school for taking care te environment, taking intoaccount what they learn during the school year.

The technological tool I chose is  gosynth due to it is better for students make them recreate with their voices an activity we want them to do. Sometimes it is difficult for students to record themselves in a video as they can be feel ashamed of it.

My micro project is based on a classical activity that has always been a cutting edge among Elementary School students. Science is something that is fascinating to kids and through the learning we spect our students to have, we can make students to formulate themselves questions about the nature, they can formulate basic hypothesis, they can comprehend theories and they can reflect about certain nature phenomena while they can increase their vocabulary in English.

There is great quantity of experiments that are specific designed for Elementary School Kids. I am going to choose some of them that can be related to the vocabulary the are learning in the English Class in the third grade. They are going to be safe and not too complex. And the final product is to develop a little podcast with the voices of the kids talking about a specific experiment, such as the steps to do it or the final product. They are going to do a kind of big book with the evidence of the work they have already done.

Based on my micro-project idea and students`s needs, I have realized the best methodology to assist them is students' centered learning because this type of learning is based on learners' needs and interest.  Besides, students are not forced into limits, the work freely and they decide to take the lead in their process based on their likes and learning styles.

Another important purpose is getting students engage in their process, so, the activities must be fun and interesting to encourage students to participate in oral task, learn to work independently, and interact with others.  That’s the basis of student-centered learning, the student is encouraged to be curious and learn the information how they best learn.

1. Each student will think in one expressión or word that he o she wants to learn in English.
2. For each expression in a workshop
we are going to search when, where and how we can use it.
3. In groups they are going to practice the expressions and appropiate it in their daily routine.
4. After selecting the expressions we are going to build the phisic version of the dictionary and each student must to do one page with the expression that called his or her attention.
5. Finally we are going to evaluate the experience recognazing positives and negatives issues and what should we do to improve it and building more volumens for the dictionary

"Mini-performances of Shakespeare's classics by seventh graders"

# data[].attributes.body
In this micro-project, seventh graders learners will prepare the Shakespeare best-known works to be shown during the English Day in our public school.

The method that I will use as a teacher is "Differenciate learning" in which my students will be able to choose their own way to understand and produce their performances.  I will provide my students diverse roles to participate in the play and they will decide which its the most appropiate according to their abilities and interests.

Other important method that I will use is "Coorpetative learning" due to my learners will be divided into team-works and will have specific tasks in order to accomplish the final product which is the performance.

For instance, some students have to act, others will be the hosts, others will recreate the scenarios, and others have to direct games based on the plot of the play.

As technological tools, we will use some apps suggested during this teaching and language course to support the play.

There is a need for students to be motivated to learn English through environments that provide them with real opportunities to use the second language for life. In that way, our objective is to increase motivation, interaction, and knowledge building with students through a learning environment based on their interests:learning environment on games.
The project is carried out at Nydia Quintero school through the PBL methodology as it arises from the pedagogical agreements between teachers according to students’ needs. Step by step , it will be agreed with the language learners and their progress will be evaluated at each stage by following a rubric.

Each two years in our school, "English day" is celebrated, in which all of the students, have the possibility to pratice the language through a festival song. The main objective is to motivate them to sing and dance a song of their preference according to the grade and age. Once the song is chosen, students begin to pratice during the classes. The situation goes in terms of memorizing the song, because this process becomes hard for those students who do not practice by themselves, so it interrupts the whole group work (cooperative-learning-Active learning).
As a result, I´ll be asking my students to download the app "Synth" to record their voices before their presentations, in that way I can give them a feedback. Besides, I could consider create cultural corners around the school, so Students can see the lyrics all the time and motivate more to memorize the songs.

My micro project idea is to engage my pupils to create a dialogue, in which they interchange personal information. Implicit knowledge is considered to foster learners to carry out the language.They can use different technological tools such as a recording voice or a video. The students are beginners. They are in seventh grade. They study at Antonio Nariño. It is a public school located in Engativá locality.

My students forget the vocabulary easily and the way to pronounce the words. We work with Task Based Approach (they have to fulfill a task every class or every two classes). In this term they are learning vocabulary about the protection of the environment with simple actions they can do in their daily lives.

In order to remember the written form, the pronunciation and the meaning of the new vocabulary students (with my help) are going to use a mnemonic technique in which we are going to create a kind of mental image by thinking of something striking, catchy or funny that helps us remember, it could be any word from their mother language or anything that reminds them of what they need to learn. As it takes some time to do it and some students don't do it in their minds we are going to use a format (four square model) in which they will include the written form of the words, the image that represent the word or words, the pronunciation and a sentence that contains the word describing what it is done in the image.

After that, they will share what they have done and use it for future activities.

Breakfast Time: I will prepare a pedagogical breakfast workshop related to greetings, food and some pedagogical tools will be taught by the end of the workshop  the school teachers will be used Goose-chase app to complete some challenges related to teaching strategies, and the topics presented during the workshop.
Phase 2: Students
A visit to the National Police Museum, the students will visit the National Police Museum with a English guide, after the visit the students will need to complete with Goose-chase app some challenges using the different pedagogical tools shown in class, such as: nearpod, storybordthat, among others.
Phase 3: Surveys
After phase 1 and 2 will be completed, a survey will be presented to teachers and students in order to find out how do the feel using their English in the museum and during the workshop and the use of pedagogical strategies to foster the use of English in and out the classes.

The idea of my micro-project is to check how different a day could be in one's person life. It will be divided into different stages. And it will be done with sixth-grade students.

1. In class we check the basic idea on how to describe routines, not as isolated sentences but as a full narrative description, we will do it through using some reading examples about routines everywhere; in that way we also check some grammar issues to keep in mind.

2. In order for us to be sure about grammar understanding, we play a game called among us developed by Genially platform.

3. Sts describe one weekday in their lives. Also they describe how one weekend is for them. They are going to do the same with one family member.

4.Then in class and by using a jamboard they create a T-chart where they compare differences and similarities between her family member routine, her own routine and one the routines read in the first stage.

5. Then they record their conclusion about how routines could be creating a short clip by using Flipgrid app

FLEA MARKET PROJECT
Collaborative learning

This is the English day at my school where the whole high school has the opportunity to participate and interact with the English language by buying and selling different items that they like. We realize that students are afraid of English and in this case they have to talk to each other to get a good product in the store.

Classrooms will be organized like warehouses, where each grade will be in charge of specific items. Sixth grade will sell toys; 7th grade books, 8th grade crafts, 9th grade accessories such as sports, leather, fashion, jewelry; the feeding of the tenth grades and the eleventh grade will be in charge of the logistics, advice and support to the different grades. All the students are motivated because the payment is in real cash, they have to donate 5 items that they don’t need at home and the cash is for them.

The method that we will use is collaborative learning in which students will be divided into work teams, they will be in charge of a specific store for the sale and purchase of items.

The shift will be divided into two moments, the first, some students will be selling their products while the others buy, then they will change their functions.

Something important in this activity is that there are two interesting stores that are the beauty store and the music store (concert). These places are chosen by themselves, according to their interest. Some students like to put on makeup, comb their hair, manicure, so this is an interesting space to work on their life project, other students like to sing, so they will be performing a concert where admission will have a low cost.

The prices will be in a range of $500 to $5000 due to the characteristics of our students.

As technological tools they have to create advertising for their stores, in which there are platforms like powtoons for short videos, and canva or genially for banners.

This activity will take place on October 21st

My micro project idea is that students participate in an English spelling bee contest  about phonics skills,  using flash cards and listening for describing the word. The idea is that the students prepare their presentation and participate in the preliminary course..

Firstable, we are going to review the Alphabet phonics and listening with the courses in fifth grade.

In the second step , we  have to make a selection of the 5  best students by course in spelling .

At the final, we are going to participate in the great spelling bee contest activity. And we will choose a winner.

Anne of Green Gables, a reading comprehension project with eighth graders from Colegio Veintiún Ángeles IED

# data[].attributes.body
My microproject idea is to get eighth graders engaged on the reading comprehension process using the book Anne of Green Gables which is the one they are reading during the third term. Finally the methodology I will practice is Task-Based learning. Students have read 5 chapters od the story until now. They have been working on vocabulary and some open reading questions which we normally work during class. But now, it's time to make a product based on what they will finally read.

I divided students in groups of 4, each one will have to present their product about one chapter that they previosuly chose to work on.

Task 1. Work on the vocabulary. Students are to select 15 words they don't know and present their definitions using pictures in a Popplet.

Task 2. Pre-reading. Student will make a Popplet againg to write predictions based on the pictures and titlle of the chapter they chose.

Task 3. During-reading. Although there are lot's of strategies to work on this part, I will just use main ideas. Students will write and represent the main idea of the chapter using a CANVA form.

Task 4. After reading. Students will create a comic summarizing what they understood from the story. For this task they are allowed to choose the tool they wat between: GoAnimate, Pixton, or StoryBoard.

Task 5. As students are working on conditionals. In this part they will just write on a teacher Padlet wall, to answer the question: What would you do if you were in that situation?

I shared a Power Point form which they have to edit adding the links of their products on each stage. They are to send back the PPT and we will share it in the classroom.  Of course they have to present what they did.

As you can see, I am using Task-based learning, but also differentiated learning.
