Listening Game / Activity (Let it Go)
« on: August 09, 2016, 04:13:16 PM »
I went through and cut the song up to 16 language.  Gave a list of choices for the students to listen to.  I have done this several times for a couple years.  It still gets great reviews from the students and even ADULTS and teachers.

Nicely done.


I made a world music/languages/countries game a while back (it's also posted on waygook) and after using it in class a few times, I realized that Korean kids have very little to no skill in differentiating between various languages because they are simply seldom exposed to other languages.

This should help a bit.

EDIT:  OK - maybe having 2 varieties of Spanish and to top it all off with Catalan was a bit of an overkill - no? 

I used 2 languages in my template which were not common - Icelandic and Afrikaans, but that's only because I used those countries in my template map (to help students learn Geography all in one go).

Why not use some of the more common languages?  For example: Hindi, Arabic, Russian? 

(Most commonly used languages in the world)

1. Chinese   1,197,000,000
 2. Spanish   414,000,000
 3. English   335,000,000
 4. Hindi   260,000,000
 5. Arabic    237,000,000
 6. Portuguese   203,000,000
 7. Bengali   193,000,000
 8. Russian   167,000,000
 9. Japanese   122,000,000
10. Javanese   84,300,000

Cheers

I understand what you mean, but it is the way it is because of the Disney created mix.  I didn't actually make the videos.  :P  I usually help them out with different languages.  Like Mandarin.  You could add pictures of the countries that are listed to help the students visualize it.

A quick question for you. Did you play the full version for your students before you started the game or did you go right in with it?

Also would you be able to give me instructions or a link to instructions to how you embedded the audio? I want to switch it around and maybe add some stuff.

Thanks!

I used this 'manual' when it comes to editing/making ppt games.  http://www.waygook.org/index.php?topic=89774.0

It gives you the basics and more.

Sorry for the late response.  What I usually do is play the activity first and then later the video.

In addition to the audio.  I use this site to help get videos from YouTube. 

www.clipconverter.cc

You can also use the site to cut your videos too.  Or you can use powerpoints audio crop tool.
