READING IN PAIRS

During this term pupils in year 6 are taking part in the programme Reading in Pair. We implemented

it 3 year ago, after we were trained by the "Grup de Recerca de Aprenentatge entre iguals" in UAB.

It is an educational programme for improving reading comprehension skills. It is based on peer tutoring, both at school –between pairs of pupils- and, if possible, at home, with a family member.

This is the process:

1st.- The tutor takes the reading home and prepares it during the week.

2nd.- Tutor and tutee sit drown together. The tutor asks the questions in the "before reading" section.

3rd.- The tutor reads.

4th.- The tutor and the tutee read together.

5th.- the tutee reads and the tutor corrects (PPP technique)

6th.- They do the reading comprehension section.

7th.- The groups that finish do the extra activities.

8th.- They evaluate each other.

9th.-  If they have agreed so, the tutor gives a little prize to the tutee. 

10th.- The teacher gives the new reading to the tutee, who now becomes a tutor, for preparing it during the next week

process:

• Firstly, we practice the vocabulary in the interactive board.
• Secondly, the pupils practice at home.
• Thirdly, they split up in pairs and sit one in front of the other.

• Each student in the pair  has a piece of paper with half of the vocabulary or the sentences.
• They shout their text to each other.

• When they finish shouting their parts, they sit down together and they correct

They really enjoyed the activity.

MY BEDROOM

Pupils in year 6 have been working on the description of their bedroom.

firstly, they watched a video from Mary Glasgow Magazine, where two British teenagers describe and compare their rooms.

Secondly, we revise the bedroom vocabulary and the comparatives.

Thirdly, they work in pair and each one describes his or her room and compares them. They make a PowerPoint presentation and show it to their partners.

And here you've got a sample of the presentations:

GRAMMAR RAPS

Pupils in year three have been working on a grammar rap. This have been the process:
 1.- They split up in groups, studied and worked on a grammar topic.

2.- Once they were expert on the grammar topic, they explained it to their classmates.

3.- Then, They asked them to do the activities related to the grammar topic and helped them to do the exercises.

4.- After doing the activities, they wrote a rap using the Google searching bar to help them.

5.- Finally they danced and sang the rap.

Here you've got the final product.
