Learning from other's mistakes 
For example, asking the pupils to upload their answers and check them together with everyone else 
You can ask to upload them anonymously, so no one feels embarrassed ]]> 2020-11-10 17:20:24 UTC https://padlet.com/sohakhalaily/xkjr81v67tbouzuu/wish/909564293 Brenda -module G brbitan https://padlet.com/sohakhalaily/xkjr81v67tbouzuu/wish/910047796 I usually teach a grammatical structure and then have my 5pt students write a composition using that structure.

I do use the poll to make sure they are there with me.
I like the idea of the breaking rooms and use it a lot. 
The annotation feature is brilliant as well.]]> 2020-11-10 20:12:23 UTC https://padlet.com/sohakhalaily/xkjr81v67tbouzuu/wish/910422416 Yasmin yasminghanem https://padlet.com/sohakhalaily/xkjr81v67tbouzuu/wish/910819142 1. Bullying on Zoom: I let them join the zoom meeting via MOE Authentication. And I disable them to rename themselves. The name they join the class by are their rea names as they appear on MOE. This is also helpful for the attendance check after class is over.
2. Starting the lesson: I usually start the lesson with ice breakers like challenging them with the tongue twisters or watching a funny scene.
3. Zoom Features: I LOVE the Zoom features. I use the annotation feature when one of the compositions they wrote is anonymousely presented on the screen for everybody and we correct and analyze the mistakes together. I also use the poll at the beginning of the lesson to check the extent to which they did the pre-session task the were asked to do.
4. Sharing a Funny Zoom Story: Prior to the lesson I told them that for the coming lesson the will be asked to open their cameras for an activity. The moment they opened their cameras, they were all wearing ghosts and playing some music. This was a lot of fun actually.]]> 2020-11-10 22:26:11 UTC https://padlet.com/sohakhalaily/xkjr81v67tbouzuu/wish/910819142 Faizah https://padlet.com/sohakhalaily/xkjr81v67tbouzuu/wish/913615871 I fell in love with Zoom Features as they make pupils laugh. When pupils laugh, they enjoy and learn better. When they learn better, they achieve high results! I intend to use the annotation fearure during my lessons, depending on the situation. Also, using Strawpoll is a clever idea to know who attends the lesson and whether pupils understand the material or not.]]> 2020-11-11 17:24:27 UTC https://padlet.com/sohakhalaily/xkjr81v67tbouzuu/wish/913615871 Angelina https://padlet.com/sohakhalaily/xkjr81v67tbouzuu/wish/924490678 I use the breakout rooms a lot. It's a good tool for pupils to meet with the other pupils in class and also to let them do some practise of what was taught before or is going to be taught during the lesson. In  addition this way when you're visiting the rooms you can give some special attention to the pupils, connect with them and help them with  particular problems they deal with.

I also like the idea of breaking rooms; I actually love this when my students meet together privately in rooms and interact in a cooperative way.]]> 2020-11-23 08:07:09 UTC https://padlet.com/sohakhalaily/xkjr81v67tbouzuu/wish/951392055
