APAVAC Castelló English Teaching Exchange - January meeting

Local members and some welcome new faces got together earlier this month for the third meeting of the APAVAC English Teaching Exchange.

This time the session was a chance to test out and discuss the merits of a variety of ´warmer´ activities, in the picture below attendees are trying to communicate how to piece together a jigsaw text……..IN SILENCE. The session was a continuation of the look at Communicative Teaching started in the previous meeting in November 2015. A special thanks to Xilxes member Nuria Segarra for volunteering to share her experience and ideas.

The second part of the session was led by member Nuria Saez (pictured) from La Vall. Nuria gave those present a crash course in using a very powerful collaborative learning platform called Padlet and took us through the process of registering and setting up to use it with our learners. Attendees were then asked to contribute ideas as to how they might use the tool within their own teaching context.

The English Teaching Exchange is a forum for English teaching professionals in any sector to put their heads together and share ideas, materials, information and get inspired.

A fourth session is planned to take place at the end in April 2016. APAVAC would welcome those interested in attending or helping to organise to get in touch at apavacastello@gmail.com.

Thanks once again to Colegio Consolacion for allowing us to hold the event

on their premises.

Thanks also to Teresa Agost, Bea Ferran and Daisy Whitten for their

valuable support and contributions.
