Keep going with ClassDojo and the speaking skill 😄

 To finish with this blog, we must remember what we talked about in the past entries, ClassDojo is a useful tool for students learning English, we can find different activities to carry out the main objective, which is to provide equal opportunities for everyone to learn in the same way and ensure that students take their respective times to perform the activities.

ClassDojo helps students to understand and learn English in an entertaining and friendly way. This app is fundamental and relevant for the new generations as it teaches people who want to learn. It is worth noting that this application provides feedback to students and families, thus forming a stronger bond between the two groups as it gives them time to have a conversation about the mistakes or correct answers that the student achieved.

This entry will focus on the skill of speaking, which is the oral interaction in which two or more people have a conversation about any topic, this skill is essential because it facilitates communication between different countries without a common language, and it also helps to express different thoughts and hold conversations either formal or informal, depending on the situation in which it is found.

ClassDojo has different types of activities, which develop and improve different English skills, and as it was said the objective of this post is specially focused on Speaking. There are different types of games to get the most out of the student's knowledge but when it comes to being able to maintain a conversation in a second language there are other alternatives.

You can share images and videos, so it is the perfect tool to use, in this way students can record themselves speaking English and then upload it to the platform to be evaluated and have proper feedback, at the same time children will be able to trust in what they know and in their abilities, leaving aside the shame and fear of being wrong.

ClassDojo has a lot of influence on the development of this competence, it can be improved through dynamic games, and group activities that require the practice of speaking this second language. 

If we talk about limitations ClassDojo has a disadvantage, this application is only in English so at first it may be a little difficult for students to use it, as they may not understand some vocabulary in the application and tend to get frustrated but as said before it is only a matter of time before students become familiar with ClassDojo.

To conclude with this in-depth look at this useful tool, we must sincerely emphasize that ClassDojo is one of the most complete applications for learning a second language, in this case, English, we know that the new generations are not the same, not everyone learns in the same way and at the same time, so this service adapts to all the needs of students, also fulfills a primary function which is to integrate parents in the learning process of their children, through entertaining activities, images and videos children can learn in an easy and fun way.
