Final activity

  The activity I liked the most is the TimeToast approach by María Pino Rodriguez (ENGLISH4FUN WITH TEACHER MARÍA). It’s a very different approach from the one I carried out, she worked with the whole class whereas I let students work on their own, autonomously.

They were free to do what they liked, under my surveillance and help for grammar, vocabulary or even the plot itself. They didn't have much fun with the dialogues and texts in general but they loved the final result for sure. Next time I use Pixton, instead of letting them do a comic about anything they like, I will make a "monographic" comic contest, I mean, one day it
