“CLIL TEACHING AND LEARNING requires that we look not just at what the students have learnt/understood but, equally importantly, at how they have understood it. CLIL focusses our attention on the process of learning not on the act of instruction.
Teachers spend most of their time thinking about what they will do, what materials they will use and what they will ask students to do, instead of considering what the learner will need in order to accomplish their learning goals”. (Diane Hicks, 2017)
Introduction
In this unit you will learn about ways to implement CLIL in primary school. At first you will explore images which intend to give you an idea of ways languages can be used in a CLIL friendly environment. Then you will study how to start a CLIL lesson and exploit some of the most common tools and techniques which could make a CLIL lesson effective.
This unit will also give ideas and provide examples of ways to involve the whole school community in a CLIL oriented environment.
