SECOND STEP
Collaborative writing
Make groups of 4 or 5 people according to your preferences and ideas for the stories.
Start writing the stories collaboratively on Google Drive.
The teachers will give you access to the folder #EscuelasAmigas Project on Google Drive.
THIRD STEP
Once the stories are written and corrected by the teachers, decide which part you are going to read and record in order to tell the story.
Practice a little bit reading aloud before you start your recording.
FOURTH STEP
Recording the stories
Your stories using Adobe Spark video.
The teachers will send an invitation for the 4 or 5 people in the group in order to record your story collaboratively online.
