Ils se croient perdus mais Tina, qui est très futée, convainc Mama Zi de continuer à se prélasser au soleil, ce qui donne aux enfants le temps de s'enfuir.

Here's a way to use ChatGPT to help students grow confidence in their writing!

🛠️ How it works: Take a writing prompt and generate three responses from ChatGPT (or another AI assistant). Students pick the best parts from those responses and assemble their final version, commenting on the writer's decisions they made. Students reflect on their writing decisions with draggable arrows.

☝️ Why this works: It's a scaffolding technique. It gives students practice making decisions as a writer without having to write all of the words.

Use a downloadable PowerPoint or Google Slides presentation.
