LONDON

LONDON IN FIVE DAYS

The learning objectives of the activity

The main learning objectives were to help students learn about some important places to visit in London, improve their reading and writing skills in English, and practice organizing information in chronological order. Students also worked on their digital skills.

The advantages of using TimeToast for this activity

TimeToast is easy to use and very visual, which is perfect for primary students. It helps them organize information clearly and makes learning more fun and interactive.

The steps you followed to set up the activity

First, I introduced some famous places in London, such as the London Eye, Big Ben, and Buckingham Palace. Then, I showed the students how to use TimeToast. After that, they worked in small groups to create their own timeline with pictures and short descriptions. Finally, each group presented their timeline to the class.

Any problems and how you and the students solved them

Some students had trouble logging in and adding images. We solved this by helping each other and following the steps together on the board. I also prepared a simple guide to make it easier.

The students’ reaction – how did they feel about using TimeToast to complete the task?

The students were very excited and motivated. They enjoyed using the computer and liked seeing their work presented in a creative way. They felt proud when they shared their timelines.

Some things that you would change / improve next time

Next time, I would give clearer written instructions and allow more time for students to explore the tool. I would also prepare a short tutorial video.
