Then, for speaking, 174 00:11:24,740 --> 00:11:26,740 sometimes, it's very important, 175 00:11:26,740 --> 00:11:28,740 we also classify a lot of material. 176 00:11:28,740 --> 00:11:30,740 So, 177 00:11:30,740 --> 00:11:32,740 we use these letters 178 00:11:32,740 --> 00:11:34,740 to make stories, 179 00:11:34,740 --> 00:11:41,039 With questions, all this material that is plated, the same, it is very useful because it serves us for all years. 180 00:11:41,139 --> 00:11:47,320 This is the third year, I think, that we do these activities and, well, there are many of them that we are reusing. 181 00:11:47,639 --> 00:11:52,419 Writing, as you can see, and I'm going to go to one that I like a lot, especially. 182 00:11:52,419 --> 00:12:01,559 Then, sometimes, for example, for listening, we have activities, simply a feeling of gaps, activities that we normally do in class as well. 183 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:11,600 And important, we always add the answer key so that the students gain autonomy and can self-correct themselves when completing the activities. 184 00:12:14,639 --> 00:12:23,980 Other activities, for example, for writing, which would also be useful for reading, we have words that they have to order and form phrases. 185 00:12:23,980 --> 00:12:32,980 these phrases are then copied in their notebook, very positive also for courses such as second and third that are still learning to write correctly. 186 00:12:32,980 --> 00:12:39,980 And then, well, this activity, for example, sometimes we have games, they are boards that we get from a website called Twinkl, 187 00:12:39,980 --> 00:12:44,980 which we recommend 100% to you, it has a lot of resources. 188 00:12:44,980 --> 00:12:45,980 It is a resource bank. 189 00:12:45,980 --> 00:12:52,740 It's a resource bank that the center, well, in our case, is paid by the center, and we use it a lot. 190 00:12:53,259 --> 00:12:54,139 It's a game... 191 00:12:54,139 --> 00:13:02,360 It's not just for the English area, there are all kinds of areas and levels, English, mathematics, science... 192 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:06,220 Well, as you can see, fifth, sixth, well, it's already going up in the level. 193 00:13:06,700 --> 00:13:10,320 Reading, for example, I'm going to show you this reading activity that we've taken out of Twinkle, 194 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:17,139 also from this platform that we tell you, so they are already, for example, letters that we work a lot in this form of writing, 195 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:25,419 because they have their own letter and then they have to write information, write their own letter or some activities of reading comprehension. 196 00:13:29,100 --> 00:13:31,779 And finally, we have sixth grade. 197 00:13:35,009 --> 00:13:41,570 Then we have some extra activities, because it is true that there are some moments in which a student finishes or faster than the rest. 198 00:13:41,570 --> 00:13:46,570 We also like letter soups, related to the cultural themes that we have. 199 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,720 You see, extractivities, crosswords, word search soups. 200 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:59,720 And look, here is the Twinkl logo, so you can see it. 201 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,720 And well, this would be a little bit of how we organize the material. 202 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:09,720 It is true that the creation of all the material is valuable and takes its time. 203 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:23,720 but what we told you about the individualized attention to the student is that I do not know what kind of students you have or what are the steps that you have within the group. 204 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:31,720 We, at the sixth grade level, have students that we have to have a curricular adaptation of them at the third or fourth grade level. 205 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:41,720 At the time of doing this type of activity it is very comfortable because while you are giving to the sixth level students, you come to the folder and with the same topic, 206 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:52,720 everyone is working that month on the same topic, you can adapt to the third level, fourth level students and all the content is here. 207 00:14:52,720 --> 00:15:07,179 And well, nothing, I'm delighted to be able to give you a hand and anything you need, we are Sara and Romina, so nothing, delighted to help you and we are in contact. 208 00:15:07,679 --> 00:15:08,179 A greeting. 209 00:15:08,580 --> 00:15:08,820 Bye.
