Module 5: Planning

THE SUPER SHORT STORY CHALLENGE

STEP ONE: PLANNING

• The first thing to decide is the group of students you are going to do the activity with.
• I chose a group of students in 1^st of ESO.
• As the class is divided into two groups I have a small group of students: 16. We will carry out the activity making smaller groups of four.
• The parents are asked to allow their children to bring the mobile phone to class one day to do an activity. The students are also asked to instal the Story Dice and the Kahoot apps in their phones.
• The activity is planned in two sessions of an hour.
• The first session is used to present the activity, to teach about the app features and the creation of stories using the Story Dice app and finally to practice writing a story with the app or with the story cubes (in case there aren't enough phones in the class).
• In the second session the students create their stories with the app, write the three best stories on the padlet app and do a survey about the development of the activity using kahoot.
