IPAD: Proyecto de casa: Explain everything App

IPAD: Proyecto de casa: Explain Everything App:

I had student use the app Explain everything to do the following activity:

PART ONE:
They were to describe their house in detail and talk about the types of furniture they have in their main rooms, living room, kitchen, room, bathroom etc.... Each room could be done in a different slide as it was difficult to get all the drawings in one slide. Therefore students needed to record in different slides as well.

PART TWO:
Then they were to trade their  IPad with a  classmate and their classmate had to listen to their recording and draw out what their classmate had mentioned.

PART THREE:
The last component of this project was to have the partner that drew the pictures comment on what they liked about their partner's house that perhaps was different to their house.

I had a student who had a hard time drawing using explain everything because her partner provided a lot of information on her recording so, this students found it easier to draw on a piece of paper and then screenshot the drawings, she made by hand.  Most of the students had no problem using the drawing tool on explain everything.

Again what I liked about this project is that students are able to do oral, listening and writing.

TIME FRAME:  2 - 3 days
