As many of you know, the past 30 of March, I had the privilege to participate as a speaker in the I Congress of Educating Learning Childhood Education, you can see the video Youtube, or if you prefer, check presentation Slideshare. One of the topics, for matter of time, I could not try was the theme of the bits of intelligence. While I talked about some games you can make with bits, You can see them in detail in the post, "The game. Key learning of the smaller ", we did not see how to make them and how they should go to the kids to really be effective and efficient, so I wanted to dedicate this post to this topic.

The theme of the bits of intelligence is a controversial topic that every teacher has spoken at some point in their career. Some assert categorically the effectiveness of this method, while others say it is not as effective as outlined.

A month ago I was at home thinking how I was going to pose the paper What weeks later would I do at the I Congress of Early Childhood Education of Learning by Educating, and I realized that one of the things that I wanted to deal with during that hour and a half was how to work routines in the English classroom.

I thought about how I work routines in my classroom, I thought of songs, in games, rhyme, in routine calendars, I even thought about making a routine calendar and illustrating the process to share it with you. But I wanted to go even further and I said to myself: "Why not an app for children to work routines with the tablet or computer? Further, if made this type of app I will be able to use it in my classroom ”And… let's get to work!
