iPads in the classroom

Last week I tested the use of iPad at English lessons. Thanks to Apcom who lent me 5 iPads (3 Mini and 2 iPad 4), Nearpod which gave me opportunity to synchronize mobile devices and run the lessons smoothly and efficiently, Solkan Primary School pupils and teachers and Secondary School students and their teacher. The first lesson was at Solkan Primary School grade 3. Young learners for the first time learned English and used iPads in the classroom. It was fun. The topic was "Let's count to 10". We learned by listening, writing, reading and playing. The songs helped us a lot. We used also some useful free Apps connected to numbers. The second try-out happened at Secondary school (grade 10 and 11 ). The lesson was about travelling by air. Students listened to airport announcements, watched the video, read about the procedure at the airport and created a mind-map on the topic and posted it in Lino. I also created webpges on the mentioned topic with interactive exercises, listening and watching, all can be used on mobile devices too. Travelling by air Both, pupils and students evaluated the lessons as interesting,active and worth doing. They expressed the wish to experience more such lessons in future.

Smučanje v Zoncolanu in pustna salsa

Ta konec tedna je bil barvit in poln pozitivne energije. Z Bojanom sva se najprej v četrtek odpravila na prijetno enodnevno smuko v Zoncolan. Bil je krasen sončen dan, skoraj neverjetno lep po deževni in nevihtni sredi. Na smučišču ni bilo pretirane gužve, sneg je bil tak kot si ga samo želiš, najina navdušenost za smuko pa tudi.

Tako sva dan zares dodobra izkoristila. Ugotovla sva, da se vzdrževanje forme z aktivnim načinom življenja (on s tekom, jaz s spinningom in zumbo) dobro obrestuje, saj sva se lahko popolnoma brezskrbno predala strminam in uživala v smuki.

Sledil je pustni petek, ki je vabil na pustno salso, zato sva pobrskala po "najinem pustnem arhivu" in se odločila, da se bova tokrat prelevila v miško in muco. Vživela sva se v vlogi najine preobleke in uživala v plesnih korakih salse in bačate v Eda centru. :) Bilo je prijetno in razgibano...

Spinning maraton v Magmi

Priprave na maraton.

V soboto 19.1.13 sem se udeležila spinning maratona v Magmi. To je bil moj prvi takšen podvig in bilo je super. 

Tempo narekuje prava glasba, inštruktor
in svetlobni efekti ...

Začelo se je ...

Seveda je k temu največ pripomogla naša inštruktorica Irena Jevšček, ki vodi center Zdravo gibanje. 

Navdušila me je s svojim strokovnim pristopom in pozitivno naravnanostjo. 

Tudi posnetki so del showa ...

Maratona se je udeležilo veliko spinning navdušencev, ure pa so vodili kakovostni inštruktori, tudi iz tujine. 

Najtrši oreh je seveda Endurance, ...

Za pijačo in sadni prigrizek pa sta poskrbela naša dva mlada asistenta (eden izmed njih je petletni Samo, ki nam popestri urice vadbe tudi v centru Zdravo gibanje). 

Hvala, Irena za spodbude in kakovosten trening,...

Za pokušino je tu nekaj slikovnih utrinkov z maratona.

Naši super inštruktorji na maratonu se predstavijo ...

Sem ful vesela, da sem se udeležila, prav zares. :)
