click to view my infopraphic Hi again! I will present you my infopraphic work. I created it to help my studetns to understand what is the meaning of ecosystem and all of the ecosystems that we can find. It was created with an online and free tool called https://piktochart.com/  I have chosen this tool because I found it very useful and it is very easy to use. Firstly , you have to create an account,, after that you can choose from a variety of templates, on the left you will find different items to add text, images, videos, charts; you can write and add images wherever you want in order to organise the presentation.

It is for students of 4th grade of Primary Education I have created this slideshow, showing the most important women in science during the history because I think that it is really important that children know all the people who have been important for scientific advances and people who continue working in science.  You can f
