Topic: Coordinates (Maths)
Type of visual organizer: Grid
Description of the activity: Battleship game.
Students must draw some ships (the ones they have next to it
with different length) in the first grid. Then, they must use the second grid
to draw and discover their opponents’ ships.
To do so, they must use coordinates, for example (A,1,) and
then say WATER or TOUCHED depending if they have a ship there or not. Once one
opponent touched all the ship they must say SUNK. The winner is the one who
guesses all the ships first or the one that finishes with more ships without
sinking.
Why is this visual organizer helpful? this visual organizer helped us to introduce the coordinates
topic in class in a more ludic way. Apart from that,
students could really feel the need of use English language
to communicate. When we finished that game, it was much easier to transfer that
to a coordinate grid.

Description: students were asked to write some ideas about what they already knew about the topic, what they wanted to know and what they have learned.
Why is the visual organizer helpful?
It is helpful because students write their own ideas and they can share them with the other classmates. In addition, they write their own curiosities without seeing the other ones. At the end, they reflect on their learning process. ]]> 2021-10-19 12:50:15 UTC https://padlet.com/gepcce/eq1f4g9qjzf59qwf/wish/1827020033 Mario Sánchez Maciá https://padlet.com/gepcce/eq1f4g9qjzf59qwf/wish/1838069076 Mario Sánchez Maciá

Type of graphic organiser:
Concept map
Description of the activity:
Students were asked to do a concept map at the beginning of the unit, like an initial activity, using some words the teacher has given. Then, we make the unit and at the end they check their concept map and correct it if it is necessary, like a final task.
Justification:
The concept map used at the beginning of the lesson shows if the student has initial knowledges about the topic. Used at the end of the unit, allows students to be conscious about their progress and the difference between the first at the end, their progress.Also, the concept map it's a great tool because organize the concepts, the meanings, gives a general vision of the topic.

Topic: The cell. (Biology)
Type of visual organizer: Conceptual map
Description: After we end working with all these concepts we encourage the students to organize what we have learnt. Moreover, they have to record an audio which supports and explains their activity. Also, to do this easier, enjoyable and enriching, we do this activity in pairs.
To conclude the activity, they have to evaluate their own work in a rubric.
By using this methodology we train speaking, visuals and team work, while we learn the cell content.

Why is this visual organizer helpful?
This visual organizer is helpful to organize and link basic but important concepts. It also provides a different input, and an excuse to do team work, thus, allowing to work those concepts in a less tedious way.

Justification of your choice: it is very helpful and visual to organize the information. As we would repeat it every week in different ways it helps the different kinds of thinking and memorizing vocabulary. ]]> 2021-10-29 13:36:02 UTC https://padlet.com/gepcce/eq1f4g9qjzf59qwf/wish/1853945170 Ramon Cases / Institut Francesc Ribalta ramoncases1 https://padlet.com/gepcce/eq1f4g9qjzf59qwf/wish/1855376891 Grade: 1st ESO

This adapted storyboard is engaging and visually appealing graphic organizer (very helpful to summarize all the activity)  The step by step chart is a very handy tool since children get clear  directions to carry out an experiment or at the end; when describing what has happened. I prefer  when children can write the steps as well as drawing them.
