Glogster - Desert Island

Your desert island is a place you can go to when you are feeling down and stressed out in class. All you have to do is open the imaginary door to this parallel reality.

Remember the objects you wanted to take to your classroom's desert island? Yes, those you were drawing on the whiteboard...
Well now, you are going to make groups of 4 and design a poster similar to this one below.


How to do it?
1) Look for pictures that represent the objects your class drew on the whiteboard some weeks ago on flikr. Go to the advanced search options to search for creative commons pictures.
2) Choose a computer expert in your group and ask your teacher for your registration code in Glogster
3) Log into the account of the computer expert in your group
4) Create your poster
5) Post it on this blog

Where and when? A day when you have two English teachers, half of the group will go upstairs, to the Audiovisuals Room. The following week, the other half of the group will do it.

When all the posters are ready, we'll vote for the most representative poster for the class!!
