Using the digital tool Linoit, a digital board is created so that each member uploads a video saying which room of other school wants to see and what they want other students to do while showing this room. The same sentence should be on the video in international pictogram language. Finally, every member will upload a video giving the instructions and doing the actions. This way, international collaborative groups will be made and all members will interact with two more members from different countries using English as language to communicate among them.
There´s a web page where you can translate your sentence into pictogram symbols, although there must be more than this one. The link is the following: http://www.arasaac.org/pictogramas_color.php
The main aim of this activity is to make our students think about the capability of every child to do actions, as Susan did in the story book previously read and worked in class. Everybody can do whatever they want, despite their physical or psychological conditions, using some help and moreover, their imagination.
Another important objective with this activity is to be able to create a digital space to share their decisions taken and to interact with their partners in a foreign language in international teams.
This is the chart,where our students decisions are written down:
