Lesson 9

Hello everyone,
today you are working alone, as I'm away at a state exam again. Hope you'll find your way through the tasks OK)))

Task 1
Go to Glogster - this is an interactive poster site and register there. Play with it's tools a bit - try inserting pictures, videos, links, have a go with various designs

Task 2
Have a look at a sample glogster about famous book - The Hobbit.

Task 3
Think about your favourite book and create a glog about it following the steps below:

• choose a background image



• find a site with some information about the author and post it as a link to your glog



• find a blurb (a short appealing statement about a book which is aimed at convinsing people to buy it, usually found at the back cover of the book) to the book you've chosen and post it as a link to your glog



• write a short description of the main character



• search for some background information ( what influenced the author, themes and ideas raised in the book)



• if possible, find a video related to the book and insert it into your glog



• make captions for the links you've found



• on your blog, attach a link to your glog and formilate three questions for other people to answer (about the book you've make a glogster about)



• go to somebody's blog, read their questions and answer them (having visited their glog first, of course!)

If you still have some time left, catch up with the previous tasks

Homework

If you had a biographer, what could they write about you? make a glogster for your own autobiography!
