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.

Mind map

Hi again! Today, I would like to show you my mind map. It is intended for sixth graders. It is really important that children know different cultures, for this reason, I created this project. I have used this tool. It is free.  https://coggle.it/   but there are other tools to create mind maps such as: https://www.mindmeister.com/es   https://mind42.com/mindmaps You can find my own mind map here https://coggle.it/diagram/WrE7VeLDpjIJ8ZQq/t/some-countries-of-the-eu In my opinion, using this mind map you can see in  a more clear way how the project is going to be. I show in a very briefly way the activities that children are going to do per day. Moreover, using mind maps helps teacher to organise their ideas when they want to develop a project in class. If you are interesting in creating different mind maps I will explain you how this tool works. First of all you have to create your own account. It is completely free. After that, you ...

Hi everybody!  I am writing again because I want to present you a tool that I recently discovered and it is very useful to create a nice slideshow! I think that if we, as teachers, show the contents to our students in a more visual way, they will learn easily. Searching on the net you can find different tools but I worked with  https://panel.genial.ly/   it is very useful and easy to use, you can create different presentations in a different and easy way, so it is a good tool for teachers. It is online and most of the templates and frames are free. I will present the topic "Women in science" to my students with the following slideshow. 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. ...

Useful tool!

Hi everyone! As you know I am a teacher and I come from the future so I can tell you some useful tools in order to do teaching easier. Here, children go to school really happy and motivated because they love learning and all innovative things that we do. The students are the center of  their own learning. In my opinion, we, as teachers must teach  our students different important things that motivate them. As professionals we are aware that not all children have the same rhythm of learning, for this reason, the transmission of knowledge in a clear and visual way is very important. There are several webs to present the content in a more visual way. I have chosen Pinterest to create a content curation tool because I found it really useful and visual for me and for the children. Here you can check this tool  https://www.pinterest.es/ But  you can use other tools such as : Pinterest:  https://www.pinterest.es/ Symbaloo:  https://ww...

I have chosen this topic because people are not aware of the need to take  care of the environment. I think that for children is most important to know how to protect animals and plants instead of naming different animals or types of plants or trees. In my opinion, some years ago, people took care of the nature better than now, for this reason, I think that  is very important that students receive in their classes information about the importance of having a clean environment. I would start the class asking the students if they know what the word pollution means. After the brainstorming I would ask them different questions such as: Do you think that these images are from Spain? Why do you think these places are so dirty? How do you think this situation can be avoided? Do you think tha...

Who am I?

                                                     Hello everyone! Welcome to my  classroom of the future. I come from the future and I  will tell you what we do here  very briefly. My name is Futura, I work as a teacher and  I am 150 years old, so I have lived with different generations of teachers and I have used different methodologies. I love spending my time with my students, they are so friendly and they are very motivated. Also I like listening to rock music and I am very interested in cinema, I think that culture is very important in our society, where the cinema or theatre tickets are cheaper than the tickets in 21st centruy. As I said before, I have worked with different methodologies because these ones have changed with the passing of time.  What is the methodology that we use here? We te...
