DIA INTERNACIONAL DEL LIBRO - RETO

Hoy 23 de Abril, celebramos el Día Internacional del Libro. Sí, sí, celebramos, que para esto no hace falta salir a la calle, de hecho los libros han sido unos grandes compañeros estos días de cuarentena y así les rendimos un merecido homenaje.



¿De qué va el reto? 

Pues, os reto a inventar una historia a partir de los títulos de muchos libros que tengáis en casa.

Mirad que historias nos cuentan nuestras profes del cole Sonia, Eli y Raquel. 😃

¿En qué idioma?

Da igual el idioma, y sí los podemos mezclar, qué mejor idea que un texto plurilingüe, como en el cole, de una lengua a otra, según de qué hablemos o con quién.



¿Individual o con alguien?

Sí, claro, en familia mejor. Así entre todos ayudamos a encontrar esos libros maravillosos y a formar una historia.
Si somos muchos en la creación mejor, más creatividad, más ideas y más posibilidades de hilar una bella historia.
Y claro, entre todos luego los devolveremos a su sitio.



¿Qué debe tener?

pues como todas las historias, un principio, un suceso y un fin... o como vimos en inglés ...
The beginning: includes the character and the setting, the problem, and finally the solution to that problem. Y claro, tiene que tener sentido y contarnos algo.

¿Cómo lo hago?

pues busco libros y los voy ordenando como si fueran páginas que forman una historia...en una pila de libros...



¿Lo tengo que escribir?

escribo el texto de mi historia en un papel, libreta o cuaderno, con buena letra ... será mi guión.



¿Y ya está?
Noooo, ahora viene lo mejor. La producción final de mi historia: en un texto escrito, en limpio, revisado y sin faltas, con buena letra, borde de página, ...etc. o bien lo grabo en vídeo.


Tengo un guión y mi pila de libros ordenados ... perfecto, ¡ánimo guionistas!


¿Y cómo lo envío?
Pues lo subo al Padlet del blog de aula. Podéis subir vuestros escritos o el vídeo ( en el que no aparezca vuestra cara). Nos encantará ver nuestras creaciones, no hay fecha límite para hacerlo.

Ánimo, seguro que pasáis un momento en familia muy divertido. Os vais a convertir en guionistas, escritores y directores a través de los libros.

APRIL 2nd AUTISM AWARENESS DAY

This video explains what autism is, take a look! It has subtitules, so it is a really good reading and listening activity.

What Is Autism Spectrum Disorder?

Autism spectrum disorder is a difference in the way a kid's brain develops. Kids with autism may have trouble understanding the world around them.

What's It Like to Have Autism Spectrum Disorder?

A kid with autism might have trouble:

• talking and learning the meaning of words 

• making friends or fitting in

• dealing with changes (like trying new foods, having a substitute teacher, or having toys moved from their normal places)

• dealing with loud noises, bright lights, or crowds

Kids also might move in an unusual way (like flapping their hands) or do the same thing over and over (like saying the same word).

A kid with autism may have a little trouble with these things, or a lot. Some kids need only a little bit of help, and others might need a lot of help with learning and doing everyday stuff.

What Causes Autism?

Autism is something people are born with. No one knows exactly what causes it. It probably has something to do with a kid's genes and other things that change the way the brain develops.
