By Christmas I left you this post, namely a talking photo, my
personal Christmas card to all of you. To do that I used Fotobabble a very easy
tool to use. After registration,
1. Upload a picture
2. Choose Theme
3. Give it a title
4. Write tags
While one does not necessarily need to
follow this order, I did leave the recording for the end. Just click on Record (Orange Icon) and then stop in the end. To check it, click on Play. After all steps, don't forget to save (right corner, below)! Easy, fast and FREE!
We can use it in classes for a listening
activity; students can do it as well and share their recordings with the
teacher and fellow mates and all can be embedabble into blogs – tutor blogs, class blogs, whatever. A great tool for students to develop
fluency, to engage and attract!
My latest Fotobabble was to promote a book
/ reading for the school library ;)
The student didn’t want her own picture and therefore I just uploaded the book cover and then recorded her voice with my own
computer. Please listen:
So, what do you think?
Two remarks: a bit fast, yep, I know, but the student "read" instead of simply using the info ;). The book cover is in Portuguese because I couldn't find any in English ):
Let me know what you think, will you? Thanks.
