The Dictated Box is an online application made by two teachers that offers a large choice of dictations to your students. They are to be made online by listening to soundtracks.
A very complete tool designed by teachers for teachers. This dictation box makes it possible to assess students’ progress very precisely by analysing their successes and mistakes.
Online dictations, like Dictaly which we were talking about here a few days ago, let us play with words to progress in spelling.
Progress in spelling by analyzing successes and errors
The dictation box offers two separate entries. The first, and most important, is of course the one dedicated to the teacher. He/she opens the account and registers his/her class(es) in it.
The functions offered to the teacher are very numerous. He can choose from the base of the dictations with audio which ones he wants to use and assign to the students. He will be able to choose a type of dictation (traditional, word for word, holes, redacted, …). Also interesting is the possibility to create your own dictations with audio.
In addition to the choice of dictations, the teacher will also be able to organise the work in
dividing students into level groups to differentiate aids, length or the nature of dictations. He or she may also:
– visualise the status of the decrees,
– consult the cumulative results of all dictations per pupil, class.
– print dictations with summaries of errors/success stories.
Online dictations adapted to classroom use
The dictation box is an application designed for teachers and their students. Access to the class or individual access per pupil is done with a simple code. Each of them may be able to communicate it at home to connect remotely.
In the end, a complete tool to advance your students in spelling. If the implementation of the whole class will require a real effort of adaptation and a little time, this investment is quickly profitable. The dictation box should quickly free you from some tedious and time-consuming tasks. The time you will be able to take advantage of to accompany your students. The dictation box is a free platform for all teachers.
