Wallwisher
April 7, 2010
Just realised that I hadn’t blogged the Wallwisher made by Year 5 just before Language World.
It was the first time I’d used this online tool – which allows you to ‘stick’ Post-it notes on a virtual wall – with this group, and it was done as a sort of ‘Mexican wave’ type exercise.
Five pupils got out a laptop and I showed them what to do. They posted their notes then passed on their laptop – and expertise – to the next person. By the end of the lesson, everyone had posted their version of the poem extract from La Primavera by Antonio Machado, and also tried and mastered a new tool.
You’ll have to move the notes around to read them all; there are so many!
Lisa, this Wallwisher is wonderful. I haven’t made anything like this with my students. I am wondering if the pupils can add posts at any time themselves or you have to do it all at once.
Hi Marcela
No – you can add posts to it whenever. if you click on it now, you can add your own comment to my pupils’ wall!
