New: Newswise interactive whiteboard tool
Have you already noticed the interactive whiteboard tool at www.newswise.eu? You can use this tool to help practice the predicting strategy. Simply click on the blurred sections to show title, headings, picture and text content separately. With the plus key (+), you can enhance the different text elements.
By using this tool, you can model (demonstrate while thinking aloud) how to make use of the key elements of the text, without pupils being distracted by the text content. Read more about modelling in the Newswise manual, which you can find under the button ‘general material’.
You can find the interactive whiteboard tool buttons on the download page, for both levels (A2 and B1). The tool functions best in Google Chrome.
