Rationale
|
| |
|
|
This unit requires students to put their 2nd language into context by creating stories in Kahootz. Students needed to be able to write a story
and then a dialogue in French that would suit their story. Finally, they had to record and apply the sound to complete the Xpression.
|
| |
|
|
Student Tasks
|
|
|
| |
Students spent some non-computer time planning and writing this project. Their task was to write a story in French for younger readers
using as many of the Kahootz techniques as they had mastered. The stories were done in French which was achieved by creating their own
dialogue for the characters. This was recorded on a notebook computer using free recording software and each of the sound files copied
into the Kahootz sound folder which students could then access and apply to their characters.
