ICT Didactic Unit: Narrative Tenses

Hi mates!

Here you have the Drive Presentation that we have used today in class to show you our work!
I post it here just in case you want to review the different resources that we have used to prepare our activities.


This is the word map, made with Popplet, that appears at the end of our presentation and mentions all the ICT resources.
Here you have the link to the tool: http://popplet.com/ You need to register but it is free and is a good visual support and very attractive for children.

Hi everyone!

This is a useful device to create word clouds. I've done one with Tagul, an online resource which gives you a wide variety of shapes, fonts and layouts.

Paradise full of stars

In this entry I would like to show you my creation with Storybird. It is a Picture Book in which I've tried to illustrate the lyrics of two songs by Coldplay: Paradise and A sky full of stars.

This is only an example that I would elaborate as teacher to ask my students later to create their own story, adapting the text that they want. They can use different types of texts, such us songs, poems, short stories, etc. But they have to keep in mind that the aim of this activity is to illustrate what the story tells, adapting the lyrics if its necessary or simply telling the story from another point of view.


  • Level: A2+/B1. Probably suitable in the last year of Secondary Education.
  • Skills: Reading and Writing.
  • ICT tools emplyed: Storybird (Link to the online resource)




I hope you find it useful and catchy!
