Using goanimate.com to teach the perfect tense in French. Part 1.
I am teaching the perfect tense to year 8 (12-13 years old) and decided to create an exciting animation on http://goanimate.comFirst you have to register, which is very straightforward. Then you can start creating your own animation in minutes. It is really easy to use and so much fun :))
I added my dad's voice to the animation which took a bit of extra time as I had to use audacity to divide the whole recording into smaller chunks (I couldn't upload the whole thing as it was too big). The students liked the fact it was different from the usual PowerPoint Presentation.
Now next step is for the students to do their own animation. I have booked the ICT room for next lesson and students should come to the lesson with their stories ready in French. I will update you on how it goes but the students seemed quiet enthusiast about the idea of having a go at it.
