Aloha!!

Welcome everyone to my new blog!!! Here, I will share different activities and reflections related with ICT in Primary Education.


This is Lyn my avatar. She is a 32 years-old blogger. She loves travelling, eating and dancing.

It has been created with Bitmoji (https://www.bitmoji.com/). The easiest way is using the app in your mobile phone, but it is also available for desktop. There, you can upload a selfie or do the avatar yourself. I liked the app very much because it is very simple and easy to use and it has a lot of options to personalize your avatar. You can choose from the colour of your skin, eyes, lips... to the make-up and the outfit!!! Once you have created the avatar, you have a huge number of backs, messages, situations for you to choose. I have really enjoyed doing my emoji so I hardly recommend this app. 

I think this App could be used with primary students because of its simplicity. It would be funny for them to create an avatar and, through this activity, we can work on creativity and, also, our own image. It is also interesting for them having an avatar in order to preserve their image in the internet, so it is an app that I will probably use in my future as a teacher.

The world is my audience

Here I am again!!!  This time I had an assignment about recording and sharing a video through Flipgrid , specifically a response to the grid “The world is my audience” (#twima 8 – We all have a story!)   I usually do not do this kind of things… I do not have Instagram, for example, because I do not think anyone needs to know what I am doing every single moment… I do not like telling the world things about me, about what I like the most or where I am in every moment. I prefer keeping these things for me, my family, my friends… I believe people do not care and, if so, it would be worse… But this time is different; the aim of this video is not sharing everything, just a little piece of me, and I do not mind doing that. I thought what to tell… my hobbies, my experience abroad, my first time as a teacher, my worst moments, the best ones… What???? And finally, I found my answer! I am going to share my first walk after the lockdown, in a city which is not where I was born...

Mind map design

Hello again!!!! This time I have been trying different tools for creating mind maps. I love mind maps because they are very useful for everything: studying, reviewing, preparing a conference, whatever! So, here I bring you different tools you can use for designing them: Mindmeister   Coggle Mind42 SpiderScribe Bubbl Creately     I have created a mind map with the main contents of plants' lesson. Using it, I could explain students all the lesson, and they can follow the class, as well as studying it and reviewing it at the end of the lesson.  In order to create my mind map I have used two of tools above: coggle and SpiderScribe.  In both, the first thing you have to do (as usual) is to sign up. They have free plans, although they are not as complete as the paying-plans and, in SpiderScribe, you have some advertisements. Firstly, I am going to focus on coggle. This one is very interesting because you can invite colleagues for designin...

Reflect on my super own learning.

Hi everyone!!!  This will be my last post... for now!!! I have finished my ICT subject, for which I created this blog. My idea is to continue writing entries and doing some research in different ICT tools (websites and apps). So this is not a goodbye, just a "see you soon"! For this last post we were asked to do a summary about the course: what activities we did; which tools we used; our outcomes; what we have learnt; what we will use in the future with our students... We should present this summary/reflection using one of the tools we have been introduced during the subject, or a new one! As my teacher told me: "The sky is the limit for me now". We had, at least, to include screenshoots of our outcomes and a video or audio explaining everything we think must be mentioned.  I wanted to "innovate" so I have done some research, and I found an a wesome tool to create picture books . It is   Storyjumper ; it is an online tool, free and easy-to-use....
