Snappet Starts!

Good morning!

Empezamos pouco a pouco a iniciarnos en Snappet.

(Aínda estou esperando autorizacións do alumnado de Primaria! Enviádeas a teachercolesigras@gmail.com canto antes!).

Ao longo do día de hoxe, os/as autorizados/as, iredes recibindo o usuario e contrasinal para poder entrar na web de Snappet. O alumnado de terceiro e cuarto de primaria recibirá esta información (usuario e contrasinal) por parte das súas titoras: Elena e Elisa.

Recórdovos que é só unha web, non hai que descargar nada e podedes acceder desde ordenadores, tablets ou smartphones. É recomendable que empreguedes o navegador Google Chrome.

Cada alumno/a no seu perfil terá tarefas dispoñibles sempre que ese día teña clase de inglés (seguindo o horario do cole deste ano). Por iso, se entrades agora, probablemente non vexades traballo dispoñible. (Mañá aparecerá para aqueles que tedes inglés os martes).

Calquera dúbida que teñades, escribídeme ao enderezo eléctronico que vos indico.

Aquí deixo a guía para acceder á web.

SNAPPET

Hello kids and families!!

A próxima semana comezaremos a usar Snappet en todos os cursos de Primaria, de primeiro a sexto. É unha plataforma na que teredes os temas e as tarefas de inglés e nela ireivos indicando que tedes que facer cada día que teñamos clase. Todo faise nesta web, á que podedes ir botando un ollo se queredes (https://es.snappet.org/).

Podedes acceder a ela desde ordenadores, tablets e smartphones. É moi sinxela e divertida de usar. Todo o que facedes queda rexistrado e temos un chat na mesma web para ir comentando o que non entendemos ou o que nos gusta máis ou menos.

Para poder darvos de alta metendo o nome e apelido de cada neno e nena os pais ou nais que falten por mandar a autorización deben facelo canto antes. Faise enviando ao meu correo (teachercolesigras@gmail.com) o seguinte:

Eu (nome do pai ou nai) autorizo a (nome do/a alumno/a) a utilizar Snappet.

Non se vai a utilizar o nome dos/as nenos/as para nada máis que para saber quen é á hora de acceder á súa clase. Non hai máis datos asociados a eles/elas.

O próximo martes (05/05/2020) enviareivos a todos/as os que esteades rexistrados/as o voso usuario e contrasinal para que accedades á web (tedes que ingresalo só unha vez e xa queda gravado). É importante que todos usemos GOOGLE CHROME pois é a forma de que Snappet non dea fallos e nos deixe colgadas ;)

Unha aperta xigante e espero que nos guste a todos/as esta nova ferramenta e nos facilite a comunicación e a aprendizaxe!

HAVE A NICE LONG WEEKEND AND SEE YOU SOON!

Hello again, sixth graders! Before wishing you a nice weekend...

Do you remember we used to listen to some songs on Thursdays, analyse the lyrics, sing them and learn them by heart?

Well, it is not easy for us to do it now the way we used to... but we can still enjoy music together and go through new ones, try to learn them, sing them... and once we are back to school we will talk about them and sing along!

Today is Friday, isn't it? Well, on Fridays, I'm in love!
