Both activities have been realized with the application and it will be carried out through the use of the Interactive Whiteboard.

    When the explanation is over, the teacher divides the class into seven groups each one of them formed by three students and she invites them to realize an “identity card” for the divinities presented.

    The groups enter to the class repository and try to link the symbols, included by the teacher before, to the equivalent divinities, keeping track to the information provided in the anticipation phase and the possibility to compare with their mates.

    Each group will have the following materials available:

    • cardboard;
    • a white sheet of paper on which to draw;
    • colors.

    In addition, each member of the group is asked to actively participate by taking on a specific role:

    • one draws the deity;
    • one colors it;
    • one transcribes the information researched.

    At the end, each group will present their job to the class. After that, the products realized will be hang in the class where it represents a summary and a return of what they have done.
