Using an Entry Ticket with Padlet
In this clip, we present how you can create an entry ticket activity with Padlet.
Padlet is an online multiplatform tool that creates a virtual wall where teachers and students can collaborate and reflect on a variety of topics. They can also share videos, links, images and sounds. It’s even possible to record a comment directly in a post and draw something.
Other ideas to integrate Padlet in class:
- To activate prior knowledge in collaboration
- To check for understanding
- To brainstorm vocabulary or sentences to reinvest in a written production
- To share resources (images, videos, links)
- To showcase student’s work
- To receive or record feedback
- To summarize student’s learning
- To ask metacognitive questions

Reinvesting Information to Create a Brochure and Produce a Video Advertisement Using Adobe Spark Video
In this clip, Julie Pilote, a secondary ESL teacher at Le Centre Saint-Aubin (CSDC), explains how she organizes classroom activities for her students to create a brochure and produce a video advertisement using Adobe Spark Video.
In this project, teams of students plan a trip to a Canadian province or a territory of their choice. Each member must plan a complete day in a city/town! At the end, they have to present their trip at the ITAC (International Travel Agency Contest). This famous contest is the best opportunity for the team to present a destination and its wonders.
Students will:
- Create a business card of their travel agency;
- Create a travelling brochure;
- Produce a video advertisement;
- Present the trip to the ITAC.
This activity was designed by Julie Pilote and Sophie Bernier, ESL teacher and ESL Consultant, CSDC.
