WebQuest to save the day!

 


Hello guys! This week we talked about technology integration in the classroom. As we know, it is not very common with our usual claas books. So, we were encouraged to integrate technology to a normal class book. We did this by turning a regular project in the book into a digital one, using webquest. 

First me and Görkem chose the project we will digitalize. We preferred superhero creation in the 19th chapter of our book, since it is a very fun activity. To start, we chose where to create the webquest, we chose Zunal. Then, we get to work. We asked our students to create a superhero on Character Creator. They later prepared a description for their heroes using a template on Canva. Finally, they exchanged their heroes with their classmates and prepared a poster on their friends' hero's, using Poster My Wall. all of the steps were explained very carefully on the webquest. 

To be honest, this activity was very fun to create and I believe everyone can prepare a simple webquest. It is so worth the effort considering how much our students will have fun. I suggest you give it a try as well. 

I hope to see you guys later, have a great week :)

Feel free to check our WebQuest here.

Here is Görkem's blog post for this week.

 Hello everyone ! It is so good to be back here with you. After struggling to find motivation to write here, I was blessed to work with one of my favorite teachers again!!! She's the little push I needed to come back so let's thank her for that :D  After a full year of coronavirus, everything seemed to be going wrong in every way. I had no motivation, I was, still am, terrified for my life, I was tired etc. After contemplating my life style, I decided to change it up a bit to accommodate this new era. I started focusing more on natural life rather than the life we created with money. I can say it's going great so far.  I'm really excited to come back here! I hope all is going well with you too. Hope to see you soon :) Wear a mask, save lives :)

FLIPPED CLASSROOM APPROACH

 Hi guys! This week, we studied on flipped classroom approach. To be honest, I didn't know this was a thing! If I explain it very simply, I can say it's like online teaching, but definitely better. You get to create a video of your lesson, then share it with the class so that they can learn at their own pace. There's no time limitations whatsoever. I think it's a pretty fun process for the teacher and the student, if they are good with online tools :)  We got to make a flipped lesson with Görkem and we'd like to share the steps we took with you! Also, you are welcomed to check our lesson down below :) As the first step ,  we chose our focus, which ended up being vocabulary. After doing some research on the vocabulary group, we got to work. We chose to work with fifth graders and picked unit two called my town. After that, we created a slide on Canva . Did you know it enables you to embed sounds into the slide? We did just that :) After thoroughly preparing our slid...

Augmented Reality

  Hi everyone! I hope everyone's been happy and healty! This week, we studied with augmented reality. We were instructed to create a lesson plan using it. To be honest, it was very difficult for me. I'm not the best with technology, so Görkem was very supportive with it :) Me and Görkem wanted to focus on traveling, so we decided to visit Berlin, Germany. First, we collected our materials. At first, we wanted to include 3d materials but every single application we tried unfortunately failed. As the next idea, we chose to use QR codes to integrate our materials. so we looked for videos, especially 360 videos. We wanted to give our students handouts for easy management. It was the easier option but it was not very satisfactory :(  Please have a look at our worksheets down below. You can scan the qr codes to travel through Berlin :) We'll see you next week!
