Reflexion on Selin, Marie, Maïlys and Théo's story

This group has used drawings for their story, and they are really well done. They recorded their voices with VoiceThread but in the first two slides the voice is not very clear and we don't understand all the words but it gets better after even if we can hear sounds around. Maybe they could have made the slides go faster but the last three slides the speed at which they change alter.
They used music at the end of the which is a very good point but it doesn't really fit the story.
Their intonation is very could except for the boy's voice because it's hard to understand the words.
In their activities, the grid exercise with the word across is a nice activity because it enables the students to learn how to write the words and to associate them with their pronunciation but we noticed that the word "ski" that they must  find is not linked to the story moreover the fact that the snow is white is not explicitly said in the story. Another little thing is that the word "bear" for the definition doesn't seem really appropriate for me, even if it is a good idea because it is full of imagery, but a bear is not a panda so maybe they could have say 'It is a little black and white animal".
We also notices, for a grammatical point, only one main mistake, when they say "the bears DOESN'T like" while it should be "the bears DON'T".
Moreover, we found that this story has a very good headline and that the moral is very well found because it is an interessant subject to introduce to the children and it is important to make them think about this theme of difference and tolerance and to make them aware of the fact that we should not reject any one.
