Example:
https://web1.caryacademy.org/facultywebs/joselyn_todd/science7/unit207/compounds_explained.htm

Exercise:
You will now work with a partner to create a screencast that captures your work as a team in practicing the use of common prepositions in English (above, below, next to, on, between…)

Person A—The Narrator: “A” looks at a picture of a bedroom and describes the position of the following 6 objects in the room to “B” without letting “B” see the picture. --bed, chair, table, mirror, window, pitcher

Person A should click here (ONLY Person A NOT Person B) for the picture.

Person B— The Illustrator: “B” listens to “A” describe the position of various objects in a bedroom and uses the tablet to draw what s/he hears. The screencast should capture A’s oral descriptions and B’s corresponding drawings.

If time allows, upload your video to a participant page.
