Hello everyone, I'm Esther and I want to share with
you my proposal for the ICT class using computers. I hope you enjoy it and it
can be a useful resource for you.
The activity allows you to choose between
different topics as clothes, jobs, body parts, food among other subjects.
CONTEXT
The activity is concerned for students
from first key stage (5 to 8 years old). After introducing a new topic or unit
and have worked on it during some sessions, the following activity can be
introduced as a way to reinforce the acquisition of new learning vocabulary or
also as a revising or assessing task at the end of the unit. Using new
technologies can be a good way to motivate students and know about others
issues around them.
CONTENT OBJECTIVES
- Work on the new learning
vocabulary.
- Identify
and relate sounds and the sound with the image.
- Reinforce the short and long term memory.
- Be able to use new technologies.
LANGUAGE OBJECTIVE
- Work
on the key vocabulary.
- Association between written and oral skills.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSAL
We are going to split the group in pairs.
Each pair is going to use one computer and headphones for each student. The
teacher will provide the web page to the students were they must choose the jobs
content, worked previously in class. The game provides white squares which you
have to click on and a word or an image is going to be shown at the same time
an oral support is going to be provided. They will have to click on each square
to guess where the pair is and match them.
This activity can be done in pairs or
individually. It can be appropriate to let the students play in pairs the first
times and after understanding the dynamic let them do it individually.

DESCRIPTION OF THE IMPLEMENTATION
MATERIALS:
- ICT class
- Computer connected to the internet.
- Headphones
EVALUATION:
- Understanding of the key vocabulary
- Association between sounds, images and
letters (oral, written and listening skills)
ASSESMENT:
The teacher will assess the students
learning’s. After playing to the game the teacher can prepare an activity where
the pupils have to use the key vocabulary in a sentence and verify if they
understand and know the different meanings and how to use them.
As an assessment activity, the computer
game, can be also used for the teacher but focusing his/her attention in two or
three pairs checking if they really understand the vocabulary and also the game
dynamic or they doing it without any sense. Otherwise a little square located
at the bottom where the word “turns” is write can help the teacher to know how
many tries have the students done.
