A FEW WORDS ABOUT THE PROJECT
IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: 2014-1-PL01-KA201-003382
The project focuses on bilingual education and CLIL methodology. Implementing these
two ideas into the project and school every day work we are planning to help our teachers and
students improve their key competences, language skills and motivate them for further
development of international relations by means of EU projects like Erasmus+ and/or
eTwinning.
Knowing that the idea of CLIL is quite unknown to wider publicity our actions will also
aim at promoting this methodology among other educators, students and their parents in our
countries and beyond them.
Aims of the project
Multidisciplinary approach of our actions would focus on:
1. Bilingual education and CLIL in teaching
2. ICT
3. Strengthening cooperation between organisations acting for educational areas and the
exchange of good practices

CLIL and its benefits
Julia Budzowska
When Europe gets unifying and all political barriers disappear, successful and cheap
communication with the world becomes possible. Therefore we call each other, text messages,
surf the Internet. We go abroad to enjoy holidays, exchange ideas, do business, make friends,
earn money, study, get to know ourselves and one another. We discover alternative cultural
lifestyles and learn to appreciate the variety of thinking and behaviour patterns.
To communicate successfully with others we need to speak foreign languages. The
easier it is for us to make friends with people beyond our language cicle, the more effort we
make to become fluent and reliable flow of information.
Basically, to understand why EU wants to eliminate European syndrome of the Babel
Tower we have to become aware of the fact that English becomes lingua franca according to
some research up to 2100 almost half of the world population will be able to communicate in
English. That is why European Council issued the document, declaring that each citizen of EU
should be able to speak English.
Taking into consideration that English has become a language of academic research
and science and at the same time the second obligatory subject in many schools, it seems more
that logical to connect these two achievements into one so that the student could benefit from
tchem at the same time. This is the core value of CLIL (Content and Language Integrated
Learning) where we replace traditional teaching of school subjects (lets say chemistry) in
Polish and a few hours of English lessons per week with a brand new perspective and
methodology. We use 2 in 1 method teaching chemistry THROUGH English language. This
preposition is crucial here as it is more about teaching THROUGH a foreign language, or even
instead of teaching IN it. Our ambitious aim is to describe chemical changes and processes
with all correctness and satisfy needs of language learners at the same time. Cognitive and
academic skills needed to understand scientific experiments, synthesis and analysis of the
matter go hand in hand with basic but content communication skills1.
What CLIL can do for your classroom?
Some might say that it makes no sense to implement CLIL at early school levels.
Our professional experience as well as project works prove that the reality is totally different.
The age groups that had the least problems with adjusting to the new style of lessons and
communicate in English to describe the content were children from pre-school and early
primary classes. CLIL introduces a breath of fresh air into traditional teaching it needs more
Energy, more visuals, ICT use, and is more student-oriented that they especially appreciate.
In many cases, CLIL can increase your students motivation to learn what youre
teaching them. The fact that they have an influence on the lesson plan makes them progress
more quickly and solidly than they would with deliberately separated subjects taught in a
1
https://www.ore.edu.pl

traditional way. There are very few instances in the real world in which black and white dont
mix, so letting two subjects paint a broader picture of reality for students is a great advantage
of CLIL. The language in CLIL is a tool. You can make use of L1 for more complicated issues.
The content-specific subject is the primary objective and that your linguistic goals are
secondary this provides consistency and sturdy scaffolding on which to build linguistic
progress.
Because CLIL is so strongly associated with both a content area and a foreign
language, its naturally connected with cultural and societal significance. In the world where
there is so much need for tolerance and acceptance of other cultures your students will develop
a stronger understanding of a foreign culture as a result of CLIL instruction and will be more
likely to see the big picture in terms of the relationship between language and society.
Even in CLIL lessons, it will become apparent that some skills and knowledge are
applicable to a wide range of subjects in a variety of languages. They will learn content and
complimentary language where the latter is simply what they need in everyday life. Students
will gain a healthy appreciation for these types of skills and may be more motivated to improve
them.
By challenging your students with CLIL, youll be able to help them build confidence
in their abilities. The idea of formative assessment, restraining from traditional, summative
grades helps them understand that learning is a source of fun and self-development. That not
everything at school must be graded. They will become self-motivated that brings back the joy
of learning. The best part of this is that their confidence wont be inflated the legitimate
cognitive and academic skills encouraged by CLIL are widely recognized and valued 2.
CLILs advantages
Learners Advantages of adopting a CLIL approach include:
Increasing motivation as language is used to fulfill real purposes to learn the substantive
material.- It is not the same to learn a language with no real purpose in mind as that as to know
a second language, than to have the need to do it. This makes it more purposeful and therefore
more motivating for the learner.
Introducing learners to the wider cultural context.- Learning a subject such as History makes
the learner understand the L2 culture far too much.
Developing a positive can do' attitude towards learning languages.- Learning not only
grammar, but personalizing the language through teaching something meaningful might lower
the affective filter.
Developing student multilingual interests and attitudes.- Knowing more about a language
increases sometimes the learners interests in different cultures such as the one they are learning
the language from. It also broadens their horizons.
Preparing students for further studies and work.- Knowing a language and subjects and
culture in L2 can increase the learners opportunities in life.
https://oupeltglobalblog.com

Access subject specific target language terminology.- Which may be difficult otherwise to
acquire or even to be exposed to.
CLIL creates conditions for naturalistic language learning.- By having to communicate in
the target language, to fulfill some of the tasks or even to understand the subject is how this
kind of learning takes place.
CLIL provides a purpose for language use in the classroom.- Since learners need to
communicate among each other in order to help cooperative learning.
It has a positive effect on language learning by putting the emphasis on meaning rather than
on form.- By having non-disposable contents, it focuses on meaning, grammar is embedded.
Some of my students absolutely hate grammar learnt as it, so this will help them cope with
grammar in a more meaningful way and help them acquire it more than studying it.
It drastically increases the amount of exposure to the target language (Dalton-Puffer, 2007;
Dalton-Puffer & Smit, 2007).- By teaching a curricular subject which is already going to be
taught but in the target language, it might double or more the time of exposure to it.
It takes into account the learners interests, needs and cognitive levels.- As we have read,
the level of the learners is closely related not to their level of knowledge of L2 but to their
cognitive level, making it better suited for what they are supposed to know in their own
language according to their age.
Teachers advantages of adopting a CLIL approach may include:
The use of innovative methods, materials and e-learning - This is something also I will state
as a disadvantage but right now, I will consider it as an advantage.
Individual and institutional networking opportunities and professional mobility - Teachers
knowing something more than just a language, I mean, mastering a curricular subject are
more likely to get more opportunities and in this case the opportunities might happen abroad
because of the reasons just mentioned.
The development of good practices through cooperation with teachers in other departments,
schools and countries - Very similar to the last point where the networking takes place but in
this case within their community or even abroad3.

CLIL & bilingual education in Poland
Julia Budzowska
In Poland as in other countries we can find numerous examples of public institutions
realising bilingual teaching programmes but it is hard to measure their impact, describe their
features using the same scientific tools. Bilingual teaching (and CLIL introduction) can be
realised so differently more or less intensively from teachers and students perspectives.
CLIL methodology has so many faces that searching for its optimal version will never end.
One thing is sure - there is no CLIL without bilingual education4.
When talking strictly about CLIL in Polish educational system it is hard to describe it
precisely as there are no regulations concerning this methodology. Therefore we will look
closely at data presenting bilingual education statistics. Not all them though will reflect CLIL
implementation.
Bilingual teaching in Poland is regulated by a few documents. One of them is the Act
of 7th September 1991 about educational system (Dz.U. z 1991 r. nr 95, poz. 425, with further
changes), which establishes secondary schools with bilingual teaching (art. 2) and provides a
definition of a bilingual class5.
In 2006 within Eurydice project the first serious research titled Content and Language
Integrated Learning at School in Europe took place. It examined the use of CLIL in European
Union. The report about Poland can be found at www.eurydice.org.
In the description of the results we can find four models of Polish-English bilingual
education in secondary schools taking part in the research.
Model A lessons mostly in English;
Model B lessons partly in English, partly in Polish (mixing Polish and English, so called
code-switching);
Model C lessons with limited use of English (mixing Polish and English, so called codeswitching);
Model D lessons where English is used only on special occasions.
Implementations of each model results with different educational outcomes and
achievements of both the content understanding and language acquisition. Each of the models
requires other attitude towards English. Aims are different and each model may have more than
one, putting pressure on various areas while programme realisation. These aims and an added
value for language students. Below we present the ones that are seen as most significant:
1. Linguistic area
Improving global competence of using English language;
4
5
7

Developing presentation and oral communication skills in English;
Increasing language awareness, both Polish and English.
2. Content area
Learning the content from various perspectives;
Access to specialistic content vocabulary in English;
Preparation for future studies and/or professional work
3. Cultural area
Building intercultural awareness and understanding;
Developing intercultural skills of communication.
4. Social area
Developing European and international orientation;
Acquiring international certificates;
Enhancing school profile (thus providing students with more sophisticated educational
environment).
5. Metacognitive area
Differentiating forms and methods of school practice;
Strengthening students motivation6.
To illustrate the present situation in Polish bilingual educational system we make use
of the Report prepared by Ministry of Education that divides the outcomes according to the
school level: primary, lower-secondary and upper-secondary ones.
Primary schools
Bilingual teaching at primary level is realised quite rarely that might be a consequence of the
lack of law system regulations. Precisely speaking, there are only 14 schools of that kind
placed:
3 in mazowieckie voivodeship,
2 in each: dolnolskie, kujawsko-pomorskie and lubelskie voivodeships,
1 in each: maopolskie, opolskie, podkarpackie, pomorskie and wielkopolskie voivodeships.
Education of this kind is realised mainly in major cities such as: Warszawa, Pozna, Wrocaw,
Gdask or Toru. In 2013 in bilingual preschool and primary schools there were 1452 students
in total 750 girls (51,7%) i 702 boys (48,3%). Unfortunately we do not have any data

Council Polska, Uniwersytet Jyvskyl, 2008

illustrating what languages were taught and what percetage of students participated in the
lessons (we do not know how many bilingual classes existed in each school).
It is worth mentioning that 200 out of 1 452 students were preschoolers. These experiences at
such an early level of education may result like in case of Canadian immersion teaching in
popularising this type of teaching.
Junior-secondary schools
In Poland there are 180 junior-secondary schools with bilingual classes. In most cases they are
situated in bigger cities: e.g. in mazowieckie voivodeship 34 out of 45 bilingual schools
operate in Warsaw itself, in wielkopolskie voivodeship 8 out of 16 is in Pozna, in dzkie
voivodeship 12 out of 13 is in d, and in zachodniopomorskie voivodeship all of the
schools are from Szczecin. A kind of exception are opolskie and kujawsko-pomorskie
voivodeships where bilingual schools are located in various cities and towns.
Percentage of students learning different European languages in bilingual classes:
English 65,90%
French 13,60%
German 11,79%
Spanish 7,28%
Italian 0,96%
Other 0,33%
Russian 0,14%
Upper-secondary schools
As we may read in the Report at this level of education bilingual teaching decreases by half in
comparison with junior-secondary schools. There are only 94 such schools with about 348
bilingual classes with 9 403 students attending the lessons.
Percentage of students learning different European languages in bilingual classes:
English 54,71%
Spanish 16,07%
German 13,90%
French 13,59%
Italian 1,22%
Russian 0,51%
The most frequent subjects taught in or through a foreign language are (in order of
frequency): 1. Biology 2. Geography 3. Mathematics 4. Physics 5. Chemistry 6. History.
There are cases of bilingual lessons of Citizenship, Arts & Crafts, and ICT Traditional English
lessons are also included into curriculum together with all other content-subject lessons.

Conclusions
The above analysis of bilingual education in Poland allows to conclude that there are
important differences between the numer of bilingual schools depending on the educational
level. We can observe 1 452 primary students involved in this kind of learning system, while
at the same time this numer increases up to 19 383 in lower-secondary institutions, to drop
again in case of upper-secondary schools reaching the numer of 9 403 students.
As we can understand the limited access to primary bilingual education because of the
lack of any law regulations, the situation in upper-secondary schools seems alarming. As we
may see the graduates of bilingual junior-secondary schools cannot continue their education at
the next level.
Finally, the dominance of English is highly visible. In lower-secondary schools it is
used in 496 (67,02%) classes with 12 773 (65,90%) students, while in upper-secondary schools
the number of English bilingual classes reaches over 190,44 (54,72%) with 5 144 (54,71%)
students that is over a half of all the people able to benefit from this kind of educational
approach7.
An overview on CLIL methodology in the Romanian primary

educational system
Florina Cordo
By the end of twentieth century English was already well on its way of becoming a
language widely used for communication between people who don't share the same first
language. David Crystal suggests that there are currently around 1.5 billion speakers of English
worldwide, of whom only around 300 million are native speakers. Moreover, he writes, the
population growth in areas where English is a second language is about 2.5 times that in areas
where it is a first language. The triumph of English over other foreign languages is due to
colonisation, economy (it is the language of international businesses), travel and information
exchange. It is now a worldwide phenomenon.
A great deal of academic discourse around the world takes place in English. It is
often a lingua franca of conferences and many publications use it as a default language. English
has become the language for research and study in many countries around the world. It is used
in primary, secondary and tertiary education. Children study this language in school starting
with the Preparatory grade. The topics taught are taken from the very close universe of the
child (such as Introducing oneself, My toys, My animals, My Family, My body, I can, Seasons,
My birthday). At this level English is taught to pupils by using the communicative approach,
emphasising classroom interaction, dialogue and negociating meaning, the way people do in
ordinary exchanges.
In Romania there are many private language centres where students learn English
from early ages. A growing trend has been for Content and Language Integrated Learning
"Edukacja dwujzyczna w polskiej szkole" Raport ewaluacyjny, Warszawa 2015)

10

CLIL where pupils are taught a subject through the medium of English. The children learn
the language for maths at the same time they learn the maths talking about in English. Thus the
language and the subject is taught side-by-side. This method has attracted many parents who
want their children to have an early start in learning English. Thus many children become
proficient in English by the time they attend secondary school. This goes hand in hand with the
perception that English is an international language for career development. Each activity
focuses on particular subject matter like maths, science, geography, history, art, PE and shows
how that subject can be taught in detail. In universities students are asked to write essays, or to
write their scientific papers in English. Professors write their lectures and articles in English.
The contribution of the Internet as a major channel for information exchange saw an important
predominance of English. Travel and tourism is carried on in English. This is not always the
case, because many employees are multilingual, but many airline announcements are translated
into English, whatever the language of the country is.
As for the English teaching perspective one has to be aware of the rules and structures
that governate the language. The teacher must always have in mind and project the activities
according what s/he wants to teach (form and meaning), purpose, appropriacy and register. The
other things which are important when teaching English and not only the settings, the
participants, their gender, the channel by which we transfer information, the topic we teach and
the tone. Some other essential aspects are how the teacher manages to organize discourse, how
well s/he chooses the words and the appropriate grammatical forms to convey the correct
meaning.
The teacher must know what the students are and try to teach them the language
functionally, strategically as well as appropriately and accurately. Sometimes there interfere
certain gaps in teaching English as a second language, because not all have the same speed in
assimilating new vocabulary, not all learn a language in the same way. Some can manifest an
auditive intelligence while others a visual one or both or other types. Children understand
situations more quickly than they understand the language used and use language skills long
before they are aware of them.

Planning and Monitoring CLIL. Presenting 3 Tools for Teachers
Ilektra Binta
Introduction
Successful Content and Language Integrated Learning requires teachers to engage in
alternative ways of planning their teaching for effective learning. CLIL is not language
teaching enhanced by a wider range of content. Neither is it content teaching translated in a
different language (code) from the mother tongue. However, in adopting a CLIL approach,
there will be elements of both language and subject teaching and learning which are specific to
the CLIL classroom as well as emerging CLIL methodologies.
1. CLIL Models
CLIL is flexible and there are many different models depending on a range of
contextual factors. These differences are best seen on a continuum where the learning focus
and outcomes differ according to the model adopted. Some examples are as follows:
Subject topic/syllabus adapted for teaching in the target language to explore the subject from
a different perspective whilst improving foreign language skills ie teaching in the target
language to explore the subject from different perspectives whilst developing specific foreign
language skills. Example: Human Geography through the medium of French (study of
Senegal);
Cross curricular project which involves both language teachers and subject teachers
planning together. An example might be a study on different aspects of eco-citizenship or the
global village, fair trade or war & peace;
Language teachers developing a more content type approach to a theme. This might include
taking a typical topic such as house and home and carrying out a comparative study between
house and home in an African country and in an English-speaking western culture;
Where it is possible to re-conceptualise the curriculum in an integrated way, then CLIL
might consist of say the study of water in a foreign language which is investigated from
different perspectives such as scientific, geographical, historical, current catastrophes, water
shortages, water for leisure, poetry, art, drama and music, linking wherever possible language
to space and place;
A global project such as those organised by Science Across the World, where identical topics
(eg global warming, renewable energy, what we eat, road safety) are studied by learners in
different countries and in different languages and then the results compared.
There is no single model for CLIL. Different models all share the common founding
principle that in some way the content and the language learning are integrated.
13

2.0 CLIL Topic Planning
What is meant by integrating language and content? Does it mean that there are parallel
teaching aims and that to satisfy both will involve some complex management between them
or even some good luck?
2.1 Teaching aims/objectives and learning outcomes
Whatever kind of model, it is fundamental to CLIL that the content of the topic, project,
theme, syllabus leads the way. This means that:
The content is the starting point of the planning process.
However in considering the content, it is useful to think of the project in two ways: the
teaching aims/objectives and the learning outcomes.
Teaching aims and objectives are what the teacher intends to do - the knowledge, skills and
understanding which are intended to be taught and developed.
The learning outcomes focus on what it is we want learners to be able to do and understand
at the end of the teaching unit.
An example:
The aim of this unit is to study specific aspects of water through the medium of English
The teaching objectives are: to understand the water cycle, to raise awareness of the effects of
climate and climate change on water supply, to explore ways of saving water
The learning outcomes
By the end of this unit learners will be able to:
give a small-group power point presentation explaining the water cycle;
discuss the concept of drought in a range of countries and create a policy for reducing its
effects;
design a water saving poster and questionnaire to work with data on how the class saves
water;
discuss and evaluate how to improve saving.
2.2 A CLIL topic or project planning framework: 4Cs curriculum
There are four guiding principles upon which a CLIL programme can be built.
Content- At the heart of the learning process lie successful content or thematic learning and the
acquisition of knowledge, skills and understanding. Content is the subject or the project theme.
Communication- Language is a conduit for communication and for learning. The formula
learning to use language and using language to learn is applicable here. Communication goes
beyond the grammar system. It involves learners in language using in a way which is different
from language learning lessons (of course CLIL does involve learners in learning language too
but in a different way).
Cognition -For CLIL to be effective, it must challenge learners to think and review and engage
in higher order thinking skills. CLIL is not about the transfer of knowledge from an expert to
14

a novice. CLIL is about allowing individuals to construct their own understanding and be
challenged whatever their age or ability. A useful taxonomy to use as a guide for thinking
skills is that of Bloom. He has created two categories of thinking skills: lower order and higher
order. Take Blooms taxonomy for a well-defined range of thinking skills. It serves as an
excellent checklist.
Culture -For our pluricultural and plurilingual world to be celebrated and its potential realised,
this demands tolerance and understanding. Studying through a foreign language is fundamental
to fostering international understanding. Otherness is a vital concept and holds the key for
discovering self. Culture can have wide interpretation eg through pluricultural citizenship.
However it is content which determines the learning route. If it were language,
imagine how limiting this would be eg where learners had not yet been introduced to the past
tense. Try to have a conversation with someone using only the present tense in authentic
settings- it is almost impossible. If the content requires use of the past tense and learners have
not studied this, then CLIL lessons will enable learners to access the language needed in the
defined context in different ways. This may initially be in the form of using key phrases in the
past tense without studying the whole tense formation at this stage. The emphasis is always on
accessibility of language in order to learn.
To use the 4Cs planning guide:
Start with content. Define it.
What will I teach?

What will they learn?
What are my teaching aims/objectives?
What are the learning outcomes?
Now link content with communication.
What language do they need to work with the content?

Specialised vocabulary and phrases?
What kind of talk will they engage in?
Will I need to check out key grammatical coverage of a particular tense or feature eg
comparatives and superlatives?
What about the language of tasks and classroom activities?

What about discussion and debate?
Now explore the kind of thinking skills you can develop according to decisions made
above.
What kind of questions must I ask in order to go beyond display questions?

Which tasks will I develop to encourage higher order thinking-what are the language
(communication) as well as the content implications?
Which thinking skills will we concentrate on which are appropriate for the content?
15

Culture is not a post script but rather a thread which weaves it way throughout the
topic. Think of it as a circle which envelops the topic. It is not enough to justify pluriculturalism
by using another language without explicit reference via the other 3Cs to cultural opportunities
which would not have existed in a mother tongue setting. E.g. Using target language countries
where there is drought so that case studies can be used to examine the project from an
alternative perspective interviews with children whose lives have been changed when Water
Aid has provided them with a village well.
What are the cultural implications of the topic?
How does the CLIL context allow for value added?
What about otherness and self?
How does this connect with the all Cs
3.0 CLIL Lesson Planning: the 3As tool

Whilst the 4Cs curriculum provides a useful guide for the overall planning of a unit of
work, the 3As tool can be used for more detailed lesson planning. Whilst there is clearly some
overlap between the tools, their suggested use is significantly different. The 3As tool operates
in 3 stages. The 3As are used with specific content.
Stage 1: Analyse content for the language of learning
Stage 2: Add to content language for learning
Stage 3: Apply to content language through learning
ANALYSE
The content focus for a period of teaching- eg a lesson or a short series of lessons, needs
to be defined. Once defined, then the content can be analysed for the language needed in order
for conceptual learning to take place. This is systematic content analysis to identify key words
(including specialised contextualised vocabulary) phrases, grammatical functions for concept
formation and comprehension. This is NOT translation. This is the language of learning and
this is stage 1.
ADD
Stage 2 puts the focus on the learner. Language experiences are added to the lesson plan
for specific attention which enable the learner to operate effectively in a CLIL setting (eg
strategies for reading and understanding a difficult text). This includes meta-cognitive or
learner strategies, classroom talk, discussion, task demands. It also involves the teacher in
considering ways in which the learning will be scaffolded eg through the use of language
frames to help and support. This is the language for learning. This is a crucial stage if the
content and the language are to be truly integrated and if the learners are to fully realise the
potential of CLIL.
APPLY/ASSURE
The application stage (3) is one where the language which emerges through the
learning context is built on to assure that there is cognitive and cultural capital. It is at this stage
that tasks and opportunities which enable learners to extend their cognitive skills and cultural
awareness are made transparent to learners. This will involve exploring how thinking skills
16

have been incorporated into the lesson plan in order to advance learning. This puts task types
and learning activities at the core. It uses emergent knowledge and skills to apply thinking
skills and high level questioning. It demands cultural awareness. Since language and thinking
are explicitly related, this stage is also necessary to assure that a translated transmission model
of learning will not evolve. This is language through learning. Attention to this process assures
learner progression.
The 3As tool uses a pragmatic rather than a linguistic approach to language using and
development. It is not built on a progressive grammatical model where there is chronology
according to the perceived difficulty of acquiring grammatical concepts. Instead the language
is related to the perceived progression of conceptual understanding. This approach to language
is likely to be unfamiliar for both language and content teachers. However, there may be times
when specific grammar is needed and teachers here will make decisions as to the range of
options open.

Types of ssessment used in classroom instruction

Typically, assessment is divided into different types, diagnostic, formative, summative
or placement assessment.
Formative and summative evaluation techniques are applied at different points across
the educational cycle. Formative evaluation tracks student progress along the way. It may be
iterative, occurring periodically throughout a training session, course, or workshop series. This
allows instruction to be modified on the go. Summative evaluation represents a point in time
usually either immediately after training or longitudinally.
Diagnostic Evaluation. The aim of diagnostic evaluation is to find out the causes of
learning problems and plan to take remedial actions. It detects pupils learning difficulties. It
is more comprehensive and specific. This type of evaluation is concerned with finding out the
reasons for students persistent or recurring learning difficulties that cannot be resolved by
standard corrective measures or formative evaluation. Observational techniques or specially
prepared diagnostic techniques can be used to diagnose the problem.
Formative Evaluation. It identifies learning errors that needed to be corrected and it
provides information to make instruction more effective. It is the type of evaluation used to
monitor students learning progress during instruction with the purpose of providing ongoing
feedback to students and teachers regarding success and failure of teaching/learning process.
Formative evaluations strengthen or improve the object being evaluated. In addition, formative
assessment implies that the results will be used in the formation and revision process of an
educational effort. It provides feedback regarding the students performance in attaining
instructional objectives. Thus, formative assessments are used in the improvement of
educational programs. Since educators are continuously looking for ways to strengthen their
educational efforts, this type of constructive feedback is valuable.8

http://www.slideshare.net/upycon/types-of-evaluation-15926729
17

Placement Evaluation. It defines students entry behaviours. It determines knowledge and
skills he possesses which are necessary at the beginning of instruction.
Summative Evaluation. It determines the extent to which objectives of instruction
have been attained and is used for assigning grades/marks and to provide feedback to students.
This type of evaluation is given at the end of the course or unit of instructions to find out which
student, to what extent has mastered the intended learning outcomes. Though the results of
summative evaluation are primarily used for assigning the grades or for certifying learners
mastery of instructional objectives, they can also be used to give feedback on the
appropriateness of objectives and the effectiveness of instruction.9
Principles of Evaluation
Evaluation should be:
Based on clearly stated objectives
Comprehensive
Cooperative
Used Judiciously
Continuous and integral part of the teaching learning process

Conclusion
Educational research is tricky business. Methodologies that are used to measure student
learning each have their own limitations and biases, and no method can be counted on to be
completely error free. In other words, the strongest assessment programs will rely on a mix of
direct and indirect measures.
Games with flashcards
Flash cards are a simple, versatile, yet often underexploited resource. I would like to offer
some reasons for using flash cards and a selection of activities for use in the Young Learner
classroom, although some of the activities could also be used with fun-loving, lower level adult
classes.
In this article there is one example for each type of activity. If you follow this link - Flash card
activities - you will find more examples for each type of activity.

Why use flash cards?
Howard Gardner's multiple intelligence theory reminds teachers that there are many
types of learners within any one class. Gardner's research indicates that teachers should aim
to appeal to all the different learner types at some point during the course. It is particularly
important to appeal to visual learners, as a very high proportion of learners have this type of
intelligence. Flash cards can be bright and colourful and make a real impact on visual
learners. Many of the activities outlined below will also appeal to kinaesthetic learners.
19

For children at reading age, flash cards can be used in conjunction with word cards. These are
simply cards that display the written word. Word cards should be introduced well after the
pictorial
cards
so
as
not
to
interfere
with
correct
pronunciation.
Flash cards are a really handy resource to have and can be useful at every stage of the
class. They are a great way to present, practise and recycle vocabulary and when students
become familiar with the activities used in class, they can be given out to early-finishers to use
in small groups. I sometimes get the students to make their own sets of mini flash cards that
can be taken home for them to play with, with parents and siblings.
Where to get flash cards?
Buy them - Some course books provide a supplementary pack of flash cards or they can be
bought in sets.
Make them yourself - If you don't have access to professionally produced flash cards, don't
worry, it's really easy to make your own even if you're not very artistic. You can use pictures
from magazines, draw simple pictures or copy from the internet or clip art. The most important
thing is to make sure they are all of the same size, on card (different colours for different sets)
so you can't see through them. If possible you can laminate the sets as you make them and they
will last for years. The advantage of making your own, apart from the fact that they're cheap
and yours to keep, is that you can make sets for your specific needs. You may like to make a
set to use in conjunction with a story book or graded reader, or even to accompany project
work.
Students make them - I have recently begun to incorporate the production of flash cards into
the classroom. After introducing a new lexical set, using realia or the course book, ask students
to produce the flash cards for you. Give each one an item to draw. They can be mounted on
card to make the set.
Activities for using flash cards
I have divided the activities into the following categories: Memory, drilling,
identification and TPR activities.
In this article there is an example for each type of activity. If you follow this link - Flash card
activities - you will find more examples for each type of activity.
Memory Activities
Memory Tester
Place a selection of flash cards on the floor in a circle. Students have one minute to memorise
the cards. In groups, they have two minutes to write as many of the names as they can
remember.
Drilling Activities
Invisible Flash cards. Stick 9 flash cards on the board and draw a grid around them. Use a
pen or a pointer to drill the 9 words. Always point to the flash card you are drilling.
20

Gradually remove the flash cards but continue to drill and point to the grid where the flash
card was.
When the first card is removed and you point to the blank space, nod your head to encourage
children to say the word of the removed flash card.
Students should remember and continue as if the flash cards were still there. They seem to
be amazed that they can remember the pictures.
Depending on the age group I then put the flash cards back in the right place on the grid,
asking the children where they go, or I ask students to come up and write the word in the correct
place on the grid.
This activity highlights the impact of visual aids. It really proves that the images 'stick' in
students' minds.
Identification Activities
Reveal the word
Cover the flash card or word card with a piece of card and slowly reveal it.
Students guess which one it is.
Once the card is shown, chorally drill the word with the group using different intonation and
silly voices to keep it fun. Vary the volume too, whisper and shout the words. Children will
automatically copy your voice.
Alternatively, flip the card over very quickly so the children just get a quick glimpse.
Repeat until they have guessed the word.
TPR activities
Point or race to the flash cards
Stick flash cards around the class.
Say one of them and students point or race to it.
Students can then give the instructions to classmates.
You can extend this by saying "hop to the cat" or even "if you have blonde hair, swim to the
fish" etc.
You can also incorporate flash cards into a game of Simon Says. "Simon says, jump to the
T-shirt" etc.

Managing the classroom
Student-Centred Approach to Learning
In this model, teachers and students play an equally active role in the learning process.
The teachers primary role is to coach and facilitate student learning and overall comprehension
of material. Student learning is measured through both formal and informal forms of
assessment, including group projects, student portfolios, and class participation. Teaching and
21

assessment are connected; student learning is continuously measured during teacher
instruction.10
Pair work, group work and individual work can all be effective, if used at the right times
and if structured in an appropriate way. For teachers, pair work and group work can be excellent
tools to promote student interaction; individual work, on the other hand is easier to assess and
often appeals to students with intrapersonal intelligences. As a teacher it is important to vary
groupings depending on the goals and context of the activity and it is important to know what
supports to offer students for each situation. In this section we will discuss different ways to
group students and how structure can be provided at each level.
The Taxonomy of Teaching Methods11
The following methods have been arranged in terms of increasing sophistication of
the thinking required of students. This is not to say that any one of the techniques is
inappropriate for particular ages. However, when planning for educational experiences,
teachers need to identify the level of cognitive processing they want to engage and select the
technique that best encourages that level of thinking (Lasley, Matczynski, & Rowley, 2002).
The following list of techniques parallels Bloom's Taxonomy,12 The taxonomy begins with the
least sophisticated level of processing, that being the recall of knowledge and facts, and
progresses to the highest level, thinking that involves evaluative processes.
Teacher Centered
Direct Instruction: Teacher explains or demonstrates
Direct instruction is usually listed in the teaching of skills as the lowest level of our taxonomy
of instructional techniques because in this case the teacher decides what is important for the
students to know and specifically explains or demonstrates a skill, and the student attempts to
replicate it. There is very little abstraction involved here, though that is by no means intended
to imply that the task is a simple one. As children struggle to reproduce the letters of the
alphabet, they need all the concentration and control they can muster. Similarly, the high school
student performing the steps of an experiment can be very focused and intent. Nonetheless, the
demands for deep understanding and recombining of information on the part of the student are
minimal in a direct instruction format. The emphasis is clearly on the acquiring of information
or procedural skills.
Drill and Practice: Repetition to hone a skill or memorize information
Drill and practice is one level up from direct instruction. Though it might seem that this
technique is even more rote in nature than direct instruction, the implication is that something
has already been learned, or at the very least been presented, and now the emphasis is on
repetition to hone the skill or provide a strong link to the information to improve remembering
it.

Englehart, Furst, Hill, & Krathwohl, 1956).

22

Lecture: Teacher provides information to students in a one-way verbal presentation
The lecture, the mainstay of a traditional college education, shows up third in our instructional
technique hierarchy. Lectures in their pure form serve only to offer information from one
person to another in a one-way verbal transaction.
Dialogue Oriented
Question and Answer: Requires reflection as information is exchanged in response to a
question
At this point we begin considering techniques that actually require reflection on the part of the
student and thus involve evaluation and the synthesis of new information, the two highest levels
of Bloom's Taxonomy. Reflection requires that a student receive information and then consider
it with regard to his or her own experiences and interpretations.
The question-and-answer technique supposes that to one degree or another the teacher and the
student share a common body of knowledge. This does not mean that the student has the same
depth of knowledge or understanding, but there are sufficient elements to the common core
that allow the student and teacher to make consideration of the topic a two-way exchange.
One purpose would be for giving the students practice with the recall (and perhaps application)
of particular information. Another would be for assessing the students acquisition of particular
information.
Discussion: An exchange of opinions and perspectives
Discussion differs from the previous level in that neither the teacher nor the student holds the
upper hand. In this situation the teacher is concerned with a very different treatment of
information than possible using the previous methods. Discussions involve the exchange of
ideas. With this approach a teacher hopes to develop greater depth of thinking and perhaps to
foster the manipulation of information for solving problems rather than just the acquisition of
knowledge.
Student Centered
Mental Modeling: Assists students in managing their own learning by modeling a problemsolving technique
Mental Modeling (Culyer, 1987) and a variation of it, the I wonder... model (Bentley,
Ebert, & Ebert, 2000), are techniques specifically intended to enhance students ability to direct
their own learning by modeling the use of cognitive processes in the solving of some problem.
Discovery Learning: Uses students personal experiences as the foundation for building
concepts
Discovery learning is an approach to instruction that focuses on students personal
experiences as the foundation for conceptual development. The challenge is to provide your
students with the opportunities for experiences they need in the context of discovery. That is,
allowing students to find the information for themselves by virtue of some activity provided.
The students will then share a common experience that can be developed as it relates to the
concept under consideration.
Four-Phase Learning Cycle
23

Introduction: a question, challenge, or interesting event that captures the students curiosity.
Exploration: the opportunity for students to manipulate materials, to explore, and to gather
information.
Concept Development: With a common experience to relate to, terminology is introduced
and concepts developed in class discussion.
Application: This could take the form of an enrichment activity, an opportunity to apply
what has been learned, or a test to assess learning.
Inquiry: Allows students to generate the questions that they will then investigate and answer
We have placed inquiry at the highest level of our taxonomy not only because it involves the
use of prior knowledge and the discovery of new knowledge, but because it also involves
generating the question to be answered
Issues such as the developmental level of the students, the instructional venue (indoors,
outdoors, individual desks, tables and chairs for group work, etc.), and the subject matter to be
presented must be considered. As has previously been the case, the teacher may well determine
that a combination of techniques would be most appropriate.

A benefit of students working together is that, by explaining a concept or idea to peers,

that idea or concept becomes clearer to the student doing the explaining.
Each type of work-individual, pair and group- has its place in the language classroom.
As the above table shows, there are certain pros and cons of each approach, but all can be
connected to theory dealing with effective language learning. Some activities and topics may
be best suited to one particular style of work, but the key is to use variety and give students a
sufficient number of opportunities to work and learn from one another.
How should pair work be structured?
In order for it to be successful and a valuable use of class time, students need to be able
to practice taking on each role to get maximum exposure with the material. For example, if
students are practicing a two-person dialogue, each student should have a turn with each role.
To take pair work one step further, the teacher should have students work on the same activity
in different pairs; by working with several other students in the class, each student gets ample
practice, they could make use of Vygotskys Zone of Proximal Development, and has the
opportunity to hear and help other students.
25

Group making Ideas
We know that group work can be a useful tool in the language classroom but how should groups
be chosen? Here are some strategies for forming groups in the language classroom:
Index
Cards
Put matching stickers on every set of two index cards. When it is time to choose
partners or groups, put cards face down on a table and have students come up and
pick a card. Students then find their sticker match.
Numbered Use tongue depressors and put a number on one end of each one - up to the number
Sticks
of kids in the class. Number the students in the beginning of the year as well. Keep
the "sticks" in a cup, number down. When it's time for partner work, pull 2, or 3, or
4 (whatever size groups you need) at a time and those numbered kids work together.
The "sticks" are also good for choosing who answers a question during a discussion.
Puzzle
Pieces
Cut the pictures from an old calendar, and have them laminated, then cut them into
puzzle shaped pieces. Have the kids each pull a puzzle piece from a basket and then
tell them to go find the other pieces to their puzzle and when their puzzle is
complete to sit at a group of desks and raise their hands.
Examples of good pair or group work activities
Map Quest
Students are both given a map. One student asks for directions to a particular place on
the map and the other student gives directions. Students switch roles and repeat activity.
Picture
Description
Students work in partners and compete to draw the most accurate image. One partner
holds an image in their hand and describes the image to the other partner who tries to
draw the image. Once the image is competed partners can switch roles and repeat
activity.
Blindfolded
Directions
In partners, one student leads the blind-folded partner through an obstacle course by
giving verbal directions. Students can switch roles and repeat activity.
Spot the
Difference
Spot the difference is a name given to a puzzle where two versions of an image are
shown side by side, and the player has to find differences between them. For this partner
activity the pair has to figure out what those differences are by asking each other
questions. For second language learning it is important to choose or create images that
incorporate vocabulary known by the student. By asking students to work in stages (5
differences at a time) they will be less likely to get overwhelmed and find the task more
motivating.

Language use and learning in CLIL in maths lessons
Tomasz Piotrowski
Content
Maths is one of the school subjects which can be easily taught during English lessons.
Teachers can also use the reverse approach they can teach mathematics using only the English
language. Anyway, they must be aware of the content, which is the first word in CLIL, as
curricular content leads language learning. For instance, learning mathematics often requires
from learners making hypotheses and then proving whether the hypotheses are true or not.
Maths teachers should pay attention to the language the learners need to think during the
process of learning, make their hypotheses and provide their proof. The example is presented
in Figure 1.
Figure 1. Hypothesis and proof in CLIL maths lessons
HYPOTHESIS
If a whole number ends in 0 or 5, it can be divided by 5.
PROOF
215 ends in 5, which implies that it is divisible by 5.
Source: authors own study based on Teaching Maths through English a CLIL approach,
University of Cambridge, p. 2.
Teachers should teach this language, or help learners to notice it in order to let them
communicate. During CLIL classes students need to hear language models many times before
they are able to produce language in an accurate way.
Cloys 4 Cs of CLIL
While preparing a CLIL maths lesson it is suggested to take into consideration Cloys
4 Cs of CLIL. They are as follows:
C for Content: What is the topic of the maths lesson? (e.g. addition and subtraction, fractions,
decimals, etc.),
C for Communication: What maths language learners are going to use during the class? (e.g.
the language concerning addition, subtraction, comparison, etc.),
C for Cognition: What thinking skills are required from learners? (e.g.: calculating,
classifying, identifying, etc.),
27

C for Culture (sometimes referred to Citizenship or Community): Is there a cultural context
during the maths lesson? (e.g. students from different language backgrounds may not calculate
in the same way and may also use different maths symbols).
Planning a CLIL maths lesson
Before the lesson it is suggested for teachers to activate the learners prior knowledge.
Teachers need to find out what students already know about the curricular topic. Students may
be familiar with many facts concerning the topic in their mother tongue but may have some
difficulties in explaining this knowledge in a foreign language. Teachers should be aware of
the fact that, while brainstorming ideas about a new topic, they may expect learners to use some
L1 and then translate into a foreign language.
Teachers should plan the input - the knowledge which is going to be conveyed during
the CLIL lesson. They need to plan:
-
if the information is going to be presented electronically, in writing, on paper or orally,

if learners are going to work in groups, in pairs or individually,
if they are going to include practical demonstrations during the class.
Teachers should also plan for student output - the content which is going to be produced
and the language which is going to be spoken by students during the lesson. Teachers should
know:
-
if the content and language are going to be communicated in writing, orally or by the
use of practical skills (e.g. by presenting a project),
if the content and language are going to be done in groups, in pairs or individually,
what the success for the learners is going to be like.
While planning the CLIL maths lesson it is advised for teachers to pay attention to wait
time. It refers to the time teachers should spend waiting between their questions and learners
answers. If maths elements are taught in a foreign language, students may need
a longer wait time than it is usually required. It is really significant, especially at the beginning
of the course. Consequently, teachers should allow for this so that all learners have possibility
of taking part in classroom interaction.
In order to make maths lessons attractive for learners, teachers need to organize
interactive pair or group work tasks. This kind of activities involve learners in producing key
subject-specific vocabulary and structures in meaningful learning. This may be at word level
or at sentence level. Students can give short presentations on different parts of the curricular
maths topic. They may be either digitally or face-to-face presentations. Maths activities should
support the process of creating new content and language.
Maths lessons (with the use of CLIL approach) should be some kind of cognitive
challenge for learners who usually need significant support to develop their thinking skills in a
foreign language. Students need to communicate not only the everyday functional language,
but also the cognitive, academic language of maths. In CLIL, they have the opportunity to meet
cognitively challenging maths materials from the beginning of their courses.
Preparing a CLIL maths lesson teachers may provide scaffolding. This way they assure
content and language support strategies which are very important. Teachers can write sentence
28

starters (for example with some gaps) on the board to support skills of reasoning. The example
is presented in Figure 2.
Figure 2. Examples of sentence starters in CLIL maths lessons and answers to them
We found that the number of ....... is ........ than the number of .......
We found that the number of Xs is greater than the number of Ys.
We found that the number of Ys is less than the number of Ss.
There are ...... ...... than ......

There are more dogs than cats.
There are fewer cats than dogs.
Source: authors own study.
Providing accurate scaffolding is a kind of challenge to all CLIL teachers due to the
fact that students differ when it comes to the amount of support they require and the length of
time the support is necessary for them. In maths lessons students may require more support and
for longer time than in the case of other school subjects. That is because mathematics is one of
the most complicated areas of science.
While planning a CLIL maths lesson it is essential for teachers to develop thinking
skills among learners. Teachers should ask LOTS questions, which encourage lower order
thinking skills and involve for example the what, where, when and which questions, e.g.:
What number is this?
Which graph is linear and which is non-linear?
How many acute angles can you see?
In the lesson teachers should also employ HOTS questions, which demand higher
order thinking skills. The questions involve mainly the why and how question words, so
they demand the use of more complex language, e.g.:
How can you check the equation: x = y + z ?
Why the distance of student A is longer than the sum of distances of students B and C?
In CLIL contexts, students usually have to answer HOTS questions at the beginning
of learning curricular content.
Assessment
Assessment is a matter of discussion among teachers and it does not refer to maths
classes only. Teachers of all subjects are not convinced whether they should assess language,
29

content or both of them. The assessment vary depending on the region, school and teachers.
However, the most important thing is that assessment in CLIL subjects has both formative and
summative character and that there is a coherency in students evaluation across maths in each
school. Students, parents and teachers of other school subjects should be aware of what students
are being assessed on and how they are being assessed. One of the most effective ways of
formative assessment is called performance assessment. It makes students involved in
demonstrating their knowledge of both content and language. For instance, they could:
-
explain ways of solving a set of equations or inequalities,

describe mathematical formulas applied to the solution of the task,
describe charts and draw conclusions from them.
While assessment teachers observe and assess students performance using specific
criteria, which students are familiar with. Learners can be assessed in groups, pairs or
individually. CLIL promotes task-based learning. In connection with this, it is appropriate that
students have opportunities to be assessed by presenting what they know about the topic and
what they can do. In order to evaluate learners development of communicative and cognitive
skills and their attitude towards learning, teachers may use the performance assessment, too.
For instance, teachers can pay attention to students ability to justify their opinions
(communication), give reasons (cognitive skills) and cooperate with others (attitude).
What helps students learn
According to two different surveys carried out by Kay Bentley and Sarah Phillips with
Spanish CLIL students, the most important things which students really appreciate while
learning in English are as follows [Bentley and Phillips 2007]:
-
greater number of vocabulary and diagrams on the worksheets,

more explanations,
use of easy words for the explanations and vocabulary,
games,
explanation of difficult vocabulary in a native language,
greater number of pictures,
vocabulary listings.
One of the surveys reveals factors which help students learn school subjects in English.
The results of the survey are presented in Figure 3. They indicate, how crucial is the role of the
teacher who explains and translates the subject content and provides interactive tasks so that
learners can support themselves as they learn. Maths lessons are a perfect school subject for
presenting plenty of diagrams, graphs, pictures which are so essential in learning. That is why
it is strongly advised for maths teachers
to involve the sources in their process
teacher
of conveying maths knowledge.

Appropriate task types
There is a wide array of task types which maths teachers can use in CLIL. It is essential
for teachers to use the exercises in order to stimulate output of content and language. Some
tasks are more time-consuming to create for teachers and take more time to be completed by
learners. That is why teachers should be aware of this in order to conduct proper management
of time spent on preparation and giving a CLIL maths lesson. It is advised to keep a list of task
types and put a tick next to the ones that have been applied during a school term or a year.
Some examples of task types, which can be used by maths teachers, are presented in a Table 1:

identification keys - e.g. a flow diagram with questions which
help learners identify 3-D shapes
yes / no - e.g. an elimination game to guess the angle:
Is it less than 180? Is it a right angle? Is it an acute angle?
Source: own study based on Teaching Maths through English a CLIL approach,
University of Cambridge, p. 12.
Conclusion
The use of CLIL in teaching mathematics is very broad, and may be limited only by
teachers creativity. In view of the above, advices presented in this guide should be treated as
guidelines to further development of teachers skills concerning the application of this
approach. There is a whole range of Internet websites dedicated to CLIL in maths lessons, e.g.:
http://www.macmillanenglish.com
http://www.clilreaders.com
http://clil.pearson.es

https://elt.oup.com
http://www.cambridgeenglish.org

https://app.nearpod.com/market?view=npInit
and many others.
The links listed above lead to rich sources of ideas which will certainly help teachers in
preparation of attractive and effective CLIL maths lessons. Thus, it is highly recommended for
31

maths teachers to take ideas from the portals, as it will bring great benefits for both teachers
and learners.

How to Design an Optional Class-Teaching English Through Drama

Florina Psculescu
Why would a teacher of English choose to design an optional class based on drama? When
deciding the theme of an optional class one should carefully list all the strengths, weaknesses,
opportunities and possible threats of the general process, i.e. build-up a SWOT analysis of the
activity. A common SWOT analysis needs to take into account several key questions 14:
STRENGTHS what do we do exceptionally well?
- what advantages do we have?
- what valuable resources and assets do we have?
- what do students/teachers identify as our strengths?
WEAKNESSES what could we do better?
- what are we criticized for or receive complaints about?
- where are we vulnerable?
OPPORTUNITIES what opportunities do we know about, but have not addressed?
- are there emerging trends on which we can capitalize?
THREATS are weaknesses likely to make us critically vulnerable?
- what external roadblocks exist that block our progress?
- is there significant change coming in our teachers/students' sector?
- are economic conditions affecting our viability?
Although the above questions are not precisely designed to cover methodological problems,
they can be easily adapted, and there will always be an answer to them from a didactic point of
14
https://www.smartdraw.com/swot-analysis/examples/key-swot-questions-swot-diagram/
32

view. A personal SWOT analysis of teaching English with the help of drama techniques might
look as the following:
Strengths
It is an interactive activity
It involves the entire group
It promotes team work and cohesion of the
group
The language is use spontaneously
It integrate language skills in a natural way
It can be the answer to fill the gap of learner
differences
It is based on the students creativity and
imagination
It is a very enjoyable activity
It does not need many resources
Opportunities
Colleagues whe might offer their help or
collaboration
Other schools partnership
Weaknesses
It can be difficult to switch from a formal
learning style to a more informal style for both
the teacher and the students
Lack of room
Too many students (more than 30)
Little time for some of the activities
Threats
Lack of administrative support
Lack of students involvement
Now, having all the above in mind when designing an optional drama based course, one
must bear the fact students are all different, have their pace of learning and interacting, and,
most important, the teacher should choose the activities and games according to their level of
language awareness.
Activities are based on offering the opportunity to use language already learnt, so that
one should keep the track of the National Curriculum when structuring the optional classes.
The fact that a drama optional deals mostly with recycling known language does not preclude
a certain amount of incidental learning triggered by the highly interactive character of such
activities.15
Deciding for a drama optional doesn't involve a special training for the teacher, it is
simply a matter of how willing is the teacher to experiment and relax in order to promote a
friendly context for his /her students. There is a large variety of drama resource- activities
books and online, some of which will be provided at the end of the present paper. As long as
the teacher is convinced of what is he/she doing than a drama optional class can be nothing
than a total success. The teacher is the one who plays an inspirational role and he/she can secure
the success of the activity if he/she works out of conviction and passion. Such activities need
energy and drive, a gifted teacher will show enthusiasm to a such a degree that it will be
contagious.
The Romanian educational system involves optional classes which should be designed
according to a certain structure which should be in accordance to the National Curriculum and
The Common European Framework Reference for Languages.
There is a fixed pattern to build up an optional class in which the teacher should provide
his personal school data (i.e. full name, school, school year), a title, an argument, main language
15 Alan Maley and Alan Duff, Drama Techniques, Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2005: 4
33

and grammatical structures for the level, a plan for the school year and bibliography. With the
aid of the bibliography the teacher then will choose and adapt activities to suit the themes for
the weeks to come.
An A1 level optional drama optional combines a clear and functional presentation of
some grammar and vocabulary issues through a large variety of stimulative activities used in
theatre.
The students are involved in various games in order to use English languge as much as
possible. As a secondary outcome, but not less important, this type of activity triggers a better
cohesion among the students, trust, self-awareness, the ability to carry out differnt tasks and a
better approach to verbal and non-verbal communication.

Language Use and Learning in CLIL-Geography

Andreea Stnculea
1.
Introduction
According to the definition, CLIL means that the students study content through a
second language and they study language with the content. Thus, the students will gain
knowledge of the subject, i.e. geography, while learning and using the target language. (i.e.
English)
CLIL is an acronym for Content and Language Integrated Learning. The word 'content'
comes first, which means that learning the content leads to language learning. By learning
geography, the students will gain basic knowledge about the place where they live, about other
places, about the way people relate to the place where they live, different environments, as well
as geographical processes. In order to be able to communicate their knowledge of the content,
the students will have to learn key content vocabulary or the language of geography as well as
the grammatical patterns which facilitate communication.
2.
Planning the activities
The first step in planning a lesson is considering the outcomes. It is important to know
exactly what students will know, what they will be able to do and what they will be aware of
at the end of the lesson.
When teachers plan a CLIL lesson they should keep in mind Coyle's 4Cs: content which refers to the topic of the lesson (mountains, rivers, population, tourism), communication
the geography language (key content words such as: volcano, magma, lava, ash, cone, etc.)
the grammar structures (e.g. Present Simple to talk about processes and general truths:
Orangutans live in the tropical rain forests of Sumatra and Borneo.) and the function language
that the students will use to communicate (classifying, comparing and contrasting, defining and
36

describing, evaluating, sequencing), cognition the thinking skills demanded of learners
during the lesson (such as: identify location, compare maps, give reasons for changes in the
environment) and culture each lesson should have a cultural focus and the students should be
able to compare the landscape, the environment, the human features of their home to those they
are studying about and to be able to understand the reasons behind the differences. In addition,
the teachers need to balance the 4Cs of CLIL and focus mainly on one of them.
Any lesson should start by activating prior knowledge, encouraging students to
produce language about the topic before it is taught. (e.g. tell 5 things you know about
volcanoes).
All four language skills should be combined during the lesson: listening is a normal
input activity, vital for language learning, reading using meaningful material, is the major
source of input, speaking focuses on fluency while accuracy is seen as subordinate, and
writing is a series of lexical activities through which grammar is recycled, the focus of writing
activities can be on accuracy.
The next step for the teacher to take is to decide on the materials and resources they are
going to use in order to help the students learn. There are several differences between materials
for CLIL and general English. Unlike general English materials which are tightly graded,
materials for CLIL lessons have a greater variety of language.
When planning a CLIL lesson teachers should consider the language of learning. There
are two types of language that students use during the lesson: content-obligatory language
words, structures and functions which are topic oriented (language associated with specific
content: lava, magma, cone, eruption to talk about volcanos) , content-compatible language
language needed to operate in a learning environment i.e. asking and answering questions,
agreeing and disagreeing, language for project work, writing reports. When they learn about
volcanos students use words such as hot, melt, ash which are part of everyday vocabulary.
Since the content-obligatory language can be difficult for students to acquire teachers
need to provide scaffolding (content and language support strategies) to help students develop
their thinking skills in a foreign language. It is a process in which the teacher supports the
learners by breaking down the task into manageable steps, demonstrates the skills and strategies
to complete the steps successfully.
Scaffolding means transforming the abstract concepts in to more concrete ones. For
example the teacher needs to explain the word infrastructure. So the teacher asks the students
questions about their personal life: How do you come to school? (by bike) What do you need
to ride your bike? (a road) the road is part of infrastructure.
Scaffolding can also be done through a substitution table which shows students how to
put terms together.
e.g. (courses.britishcounci.org)
X is
situated
X is
located
X is
on the coast
in the north/ north east.
Visual organisers also play an important part in teaching geography. Students have to
interpret map features, to be able to read bar charts or line graphs (for example when studying
37

population), to organize the information in tables, to use process diagrams to explain and
understand the natural phenomena and processes. The maps, charts, diagrams also help students
remember the content-obligatory language.
In order to be successful, the teachers need to use a wide variety of media to explain
the concepts. They can use photos to introduce content vocabulary, project video clips or
PowerPoint presentations. They can also make use of online resources:

3.
Assessment
As with all assessment, we can talk about summative assessment (at the end of a unit)
and formative assessment (ongoing, continuous assessment). Since CLIL lessons have dual
focus, assessment should also focus both on content (natural phenomena, processes) and
language (grammar structures and function language).
Teachers can use assessment scales or tables to make the goal of the assessment clear.
It is important that students know how they will be assessed.
e.g. Volcanoes - assessment criteria
can name the parts of a volcano

can describe a volcanic eruption
can locate volcanoes on the world map
can give examples of effects that volcanos have on people
Students can also be assessed in a written form (tests) they can be asked to label
diagrams (e.g. write the parts of a volcano), transfer written information into visual organisers,
match words to pictures or definition or can be asked to make a portfolio.
4.
Games in CLIL
Games can be used as icebreakers:
Tape a sheet of paper with a country to each student's back. Add a fact or two. The
students have to ask three questions to guess the countrys name on his back. If he doesnt
guess, he has to move on to someone else;
Each student picks a folded piece of paper with the name of a country on it. They have
to find the other matching country within the group. Without giving anything away, they have
to rely on questions and yes or no answers to find their pairs;
38
Divide the class into groups/ continents. Give each group a list of facts about their
continent, such as geography, number of nations and surrounding oceans. When they have
determined which continent the clues point to, give them the clue to find their continent card;
When children arrive, give them each a giant puzzle piece labeled as a country. Send
them to find another country in their continent before they are allowed to come and put their
puzzle piece in place;
Give each child a country title and a paper outline of its continent. To finish the game,
they need to meet the other countries in the continent and write their names into the appropriate
outline on their maps.

There is also a wide variety of games that can be played on-line:

5.
Managing the classroom
To teach geography through English teachers need to possess appropriate levels of

linguistic competence in the foreign language as well as knowledge of the subject matter. It is
also important to be able to cater for the integrated learning of both content and language. One
of the most important things is that the language used by the teacher should be comprehensible
in order to facilitate language acquisition.
Teachers also act as organisers: they engage the students in the tasks, give instructions
and organise feedback. They should facilitate collaborative learning (for example, the students
work in pairs to locate rivers on a map or to interpret a diagram of the water cycle.)
Teaching Science through CLIL methodology

Florina Cordo
CLIL takes place in a number of different teaching situations. There is a fundamental

difference in the use of language between the language class and the content class. As Christine
Price points out, in the language class the four skills (reading, listening, speaking and writing)
are part of the end product and are also a tool for introducing new language and practising and
checking linguistic knowledge. In the content classroom the four skills are a means of learning
new information and displaying an understanding of the subject being taught. So the language
is a means to an end, rather than an end in itself, and the structure and style of the language is
often less colloquial and more complex.
When we speak about Science in primary school we refer to elements of Biology,
Physics, Chemistry, Environmental Studies, Food Technology. When planning the activities
39

the teacher has to have in mind several aspects such as content, students' level of English,
grouping, aims, objectives, procedures, techniques, methods, targeted skills, resources, tasks.
S/he has to visualise how the lesson will take place and which might be the students' difficulties
in getting the message.
The roles of the teacher in this case would be that of a prompter because sometimes
students lose the threat of what is going on or they are lost for words. In such situations we
want to help but we do not want to take charge. S/he will occasionally offer words or phrases,
suggest what could come next in a paragraph or in a phrase. When we prompt students we must
do it sensitively and encouragingly, but with discretion.
The teacher as a controller. When we act as controllers we are totally in charge of the
class and of the activity that takes place, we organise drills, read aloud, exemplify. However if
we place ourselves in the role of the controller we deny students access to their own
experiencial learning, fewer individuals have the opportunity to say anything at all.
Acting as a tutor. When we ask students to work on longer projects or preparation for a
debate or delivering a speech, we can work with individuals or groups pointing them out in
directions they haven't thought about taking. In this case we combine the roles of prompter and
resource and we act as tutors.
Organising students and activities
When we want to organise an activity, the first thing we have to do is to get students
involved, engaged and ready. This means to make it clear that something new is going to
happen and that the activity will be enjoyable, interesting or beneficial. We must give students
information, telling them how they are going to do the activity, putting them into pairs or groups
and finally closing things when it is time to stop. Jim Scrivener suggest the following route
map for planning the activities.
1.
Pre-class: familiarise ourselves with the material and activity.
2.
In class: Lead-in/prepare for the activity
3.
Set up the activity
4.
Run the activity (students do the activity)
5.
Close the activity and invite feedback from the students
6.
Post activity: do any appropriate follow-on work
Below I suggest the project Discover Greenville Park an alternative method of

teaching/reinforcing the content from the lesson Save the dolphins from the 6th grade English

Assignment
On your way to Deepwater Aquatic Park, you will pass through Greenville Village.
During your exploration of the village and the park you have FOUR main things to find out:
why the village is attractive for visitors, what effect tourists have on the village, what kind of
animals live in the park, the effects life in the park has on the animals.
You will need a variety of skills to practice:
* map reading
* finding your way
* making decisions for yourself
* returning to the starting point on time
* having fun without getting in trouble
Map of the Greenville Park.
1. Your bus has just stopped in the square in front of the church. In a few sentences describe
what you see:
e. g. In front of us there is a
Next to there are
Behind the church there is a big
2.
Trace your way to the park on the map and describe it in a few sentences.
e.g. We must cross the square, then turn right and

3.
The village is picturesque and interesting. There is a park nearby and it is on a main
road leading to a beautiful lake. As a result it is a really popular place for tourists and visitors.
Tourists have good and bad influences on the village. It is one of your jobs to analyze these
effects. You have one example.
e.g. There is a lot of traffic in the area. This is dangerous for old people and children.
4.
The park and its population
41

In the spaces below give a brief description of five animals/insects/birds you have seen in the
park. You should insist on: physical description, type of food they eat, region of origin, what
they can/cannot do. In the right box draw a picture of the animal/insect/bird.
e.g. The dormouse is small, four-legged animal with a long tail that lives in trees. It is a
herbivore animal which lives in Europe, America, Africa and Asia.
1.
The squirrel is an animal
2.
The beetle is an insect
3.
The woodpecker is a bird
The activity mentioned above is useful for revising vocabulary connected to animals,
their habits, appearrance, grammar structures such as there is/there are, can/can't, has got and
skills such as writing, speaking, understanding.
An interesting outdoor game that can be used in making the activity fun and interactive
is called Catch it!. Twenty children sit in a circle. The teacher names two animals e.g. duck
and goose. The children that get Goose have to run after the one that is Duck until they
catch him/her to make him become goose too. The game goes on until several children catch
the ducks. In this activity the teacher plays the role of observer.

Design Art Lesson with CLIL method

Tzimagiorgi Dimitra
Initially setting the CLIL method, it should mention that "The CLIL is an educational
approach with a dual aim, which uses additional language teaching, learning both the language
the content of a course." (Euro CLIL 1994). In other words students are taught every lesson
through a target for learning language, in the specific European program Erasmus+ with title
Bilingual education: a step ahead English, without the requirement that is perfect hold this
language from earlier and learn and practice this together with the content of the course of
Art. Thanks to the students learn to process active themselves, cooperate, communicate, solve
problems, to present their projects and use the new language effortlessly and in addition to their
mother in authentic teaching and communication situations.
When designing an art lesson using CLIL method as the creator of teaching scenarios
and in collaboration with other teachers I took account of some conditions and I followed a
general lesson plan.
Conditions
he desire of the student to participate in the learning process and to create a pleasant
and safe environment in the classroom
The acquisition of new a knowledge related to the desire of the student to participate in
the learning process, for example during the course of different activities. A necessary
precondition to induce the student to participate is to create a pleasant and safe environment in
the classroom. The positive classroom climate works creative for the children and for this
43

reason during the course they hear songs and play educational memory games, tic tac toe,
musical and theatrical games and other related topic.
he students' proficiency level of the classroom
I take into my account the students' proficiency level of the class that I will implement
on the course in order to achieve the best design of the lesson and the main objective which I
had put it. Incoming new knowledge with the overall objective to conquer and handle to new
language learning appropriately based on continuous and effortless learning new words and
their uses in spoken and written speech, in this European program of English, based on previous
knowledge and integrated smoothly through activities and games thanks to their constant
repetition during the course and at the same time allowing the students continuous possibility
to produce spoken and written language.
The arrangement of desks
Also I gave weight to the arrangement of desks according to the availability of space
for each class. I took care of the desks installed in such a way so that all students have visual
contact with each other even when the work was individual and when the activity demanded to
work in a team. It is proven research that students receive stimulus from their classmates even
when they do not speak, with their eyes and posture of their body that influences positively the
achievement of new knowledge.
The corner of the class or school
It is very important to be a special corner in the classroom or school in order to present
or to hang the students works So that the creators to feel joy and satisfaction and students of
other classes to informed, learn new words through their creations even to express an interest
to engage themselves with the same subject of Art.
General lesson plan
Title of course
I planned the title of course in order to attract the interest of students and their concern about
the issue which they would proceed in continuation. Sometimes it was more concrete and
sometimes abstract not to be monotonous and to stimulate thinking and interest of students.
Initially the teacher showed it with a picture (source of the picture was the Internet or any art
book) and freely leave the children to express their initial thoughts about the title and the new
academic subject.
Ideogram
Next we formed an ideogram of this course. In its center the title of the course was written
and around the rays with the ideas and thoughts of students around the subject. This was done
in two ways either by kindspiration software or designing the pupils themselves in large
measure paper. In this way the students learn new words related to the new topic with the help
of teachers and restored the oldest in memory associated with the issue interacting with each
other in an pleasant and creative atmosphere.
Basic target
I was planning the main objective of the course according to the curriculum of my country
and the CLIL method and special targets so that they relate to each other and with the main
objective. I took care of my main aim to be simple and achievable.
44
eaching time
I calculated the approximate total length of the course. More specifically calculates the time
required in each part of the course separately (warm up - particular scenario - evaluation consolidation) as each activity in each phase. It is necessary for the smooth running of a course
to be a calculation of the time it will take from the teacher. Also in the application of the lesson
the teacher who taught observed and noted whether the time was sufficient or needed more
both for the design of the next lesson plan and in the implementation of the same lesson plan
to another group of children, so that the results are better.
Materials
In any art lesson which materials and tools will be used it is necessary to have designed and
assembled before the start of the course so as not to lose teaching time and created uproar
atmosphere in the classroom. If it is possible in the school building separate art room it is the
best, because there will always be collected material. But at our school the lesson is taught in
each classroom with the suitable preparation of the class . Well it would certainly be present in
each class basic and ordinary materials like coloured cardboard, scissors, glue, paint of all kinds
and colors, papers and a projector (H / PC).
Working form
We apply with other teachers any activity similar to the target, the possibilities and age of the
children one or more forms of cooperation such as in pairs, in small groups (3-4 people), most
major groups (6-8 people), all class or individual end or "front", that only the teacher teaches
and students monitor simple.
Warm up
Both the title and the presentation of any new information through image, video, audio file
thanks to new technologies acted as a warm up and stimulate students interest and a cause of
free discussion.
Mainly scenario- Procedure
Each phase-activity of the main scenario as a teacher with my colleagues care is done in order
to produce an outgoing material (out put) and acquired an ability and skill of the student
enriching both the vocabulary of around learning the new knowledge-based the parent and new
to learning language (English) in order for students to understand that language is something
alive that serves the communication needs of people and it is a language code that differs only
grammatical from one language to another.
The specific question "What I want to be every time the produced material?" I ask myself
constantly in the design of teaching an art course and I urge the teachers to continually ask
themselves if they want to evaluate their students properly and help constructively to achieve
the targets.
Note at this point that if at the end of an Art course a student wishes to repeat an activity at
home of the already produced we gave the worksheet, and that they want to produce a new
work of art with the necessary materials. The new student work were placed and were exhibited
with the oldest and with the works of his peers. In this way the student were to one self very
creative at all traumatic.
Evaluation
45

Each lesson plan has its own form of appreciable according to how students manage to get
the basic target at first and special aims.
Basic general objectives of the evaluation in my judgment are:
a) the student to cultivate his own the ability of self-assessment,
b) to evaluate the lesson plan and not individually each student and
c) to assess over time the student's progress around the art class by the method in combination
with the progress in learning a new language through the use of CLIL method.
The following table lists the stages of teaching a lesson plan . The phases according to their
objectives differ, alternate, omitted or repeated.
Introduction warm up
Mobilize students interest around the new theme through optical, acoustic stimuli and detection
of pre-existing knowledge about the topic or related to the subject. (10-15 minutes)
Main scenario
Procedure
It consists of at least three different target activities where new material is presented in detail
in order to be mastered by students according to their abilities. It's long teaching phase and
tiered difficulty activities according to the new teaching subject and objectives set. The format
varies and if the teacher feels during the course necessary he/she repeats some activity in order
to better win the new object or reject an activity because it considers that it is more difficult
than originally estimated. The time varies if and when the original design becomes a time
calculation but fluctuates during teaching practice of student performance.
Consolidation- Evaluation Follow up
Students using the new vocabulary present their projects personally. Note that at this stage they
are prohibited strictly evaluative comments from the teacher and classmates yet. The role of
the teacher is still supportive recalling new words v presentation, synonyms or indicating the
relevant pictures and presentations. The works displayed in a prominent corner of the
classroom or the school. (20-30 minutes)
Note that in all phases of teaching the use of new information technologies and facilitate the
students and the teacher. Also the presentation of the student work individually or in groups,
whether it is a theatrical act, song and other fills the student satisfaction. And mainly acts as a
student but as effortless self both work separately and in comparison with the works of his
peers. At the same time accepting new approach a work of art stimuli by presenting the eyes
of his peers which as mentioned above is manifested in the creation of a new work of art
allowing free expression, creativity, liberation and relief from problems and stresses.
Completing our presentation to be noted that the use of CLIL method in the course of
art will be a new creative impetus and mobilization to the students interest. The method allows
the course content and the acquisition of new language to become one, and that students may
learn more slowly but steadily and long in relation to other students studying the language in
separate classes and special books. Thanks CLIL method students learn the new language by
a natural way, in a safe atmosphere and through teaching scenery which attract their interest
and give meaning to why to learn a new language and where they will use it. In closing modern
46

technologies, the Internet and games contribute helper, so a course designed by the CLIL
method to be successful even for the students with learning problems such as dyslexia and to
prepare children from the elementary small even order for the future for a multicultural society
where citizens of spontaneous, respect each other, communicate through a language always
accepting the local language of each country.

CLIL Methodology in Physical
Education
In recent years, there has been increased interest in teaching and learning other subjects
through the medium of a foreign language The bilingual classes are an opportunity to improve
the English level of our students through Physical Education lessons.
General objectives of a bilingual program:
Intensify the learning of the English language through means of physical education (P.E.)
Incorporate English as a communicative language in the subject of P.E.
Learn technical vocabulary affiliated with subject (P.E).
PE is usually one of the subjects the students feel comfortable with, and the reason is its
dynamism. PE is a subject where pupils dont just sit in their chairs, work with books or take
notes. But when we need to teach some contents (such as the importance of some parts of the
body in the physical effort), problems could appear, especially, when teaching in a foreign
language, because catching pupils attention is more difficult than in other cases. Pupils have
to realise that PE is getting to know our body, inside and out, how it works, and how our mind
takes a big part of the movement of the body.
Students are different from intellectually and emotionally point of view, and the teacher
must have the ability to remove any problems in understanding the message sent and adapting
it to the peculiarities of each message.
Communication is a fundamental condition in teaching and help to strengthen both
relationships between students and teacher and the cohesion of the group. Communication
within the class (team) is complex, combining different forms, types of communication and
media. It is very important to create a friendship based on mutual respect and good ambience
that takes place in physical education time.
How can a teacher transmit information during a PE lesson?
1. Exposure is a verbal monologue of introducing a volume of information the teacher to
students. The exposure can take the form of: story, explanation, lecture teaching.
- The story is used especially in preschool and primary school and consists of presenting the
information in a description

- Presentation of data related to the history and evolution of branches sports, some significant
episodes from major competitions (such as Olympic Games) or the biographical elements of
great champions arouse children interest in sports while creating a motivation for its practice.
2. Explanation is a rational and argumentation of a movement, its components and their
influences on body
3. Conversation lies in the dialogue between teacher and student
- Teacher plays the role of a partner who not only put questions, but answers students' questions
- Through conversation students' thinking is stimulated, knowledge and skills are fixed and
cooperation and team spirit are developed
- It can be used at the beginning or end of the physical education lesson
4. Problem-solving and discovery learning consists of putting the student in front of the
difficulties created deliberately, which will help the pupil to learn something new by
overcoming them with its own effort
- New knowledge is obtained by personal effort.
- Problem solving purpose is to train the pupils (athletes) in finding solutions for solving
problem situations that occur during physical education classes (applied different routes, stage
races, games), the leisure activities of students (tourism orientation, etc. ) and the resolution of
specific tactical situations sports games
- Promote the creativity, stimulates imagination and combat routine
5. Brainstorming is an excellent way to stimulate pupils creativity
- It is conditioned on a prior background knowledge enabling students to formulate their own
points of view regarding the issue in question
- Has usefulness especially in sports training, to establish preparing plans, special tactics for
competition, etc.
How to design a lesson plan in PE?
The lesson plan should include the following:
the teaching aims
the vocabulary, structures and functions
thinking skills and personal and social development; the resources and facilities that will be
needed
a sequence of activities, usually divided in three phases.
Although some routines are the same in school procedures and PE lessons, at the
beginning of the school year it is important for the class to know the routines, the groups
organisation and roles, the language that will be needed to ask for equipment, and the roll calls
and dressing room procedures. It is also very important for the subject teachers to reach an
agreement with the language teachers about which language to use for class management,
especially where younger learners are involved.
48

PE-CLIL uses a communicative approach, which is highly effective in making learners
themselves understood in the shortest possible time. To support this process of learning, it is
better to use a wide range of language teaching techniques, which can include:
Pre-teaching. Before introducing an activity, the teacher introduces key vocabulary related
to the skill or activity. The teacher uses images that match with the key words, text, gesture,
mime or physical examples if necessary.
Eliciting. Giving clues to help the class locate information or answer a question is more
beneficial than simply giving the right answer.
Scanning. Learners read a text quickly in order to pick out specific information, which
makes the text easier to understand as a whole.
Skimming. Learners read a text quickly in order to get a global understanding, which serves
a similar purpose.
Recasting. Rephrasing a phrase or sentence which is correct but inappropriate in the context
in question.
In PE-CLIL lessons it is important that the teacher act as a model, using gestures and
English expressions to describe the action. Pupils are encouraged to use English words and are
rewarded for their effort with positive feedback.
Lessons follow the traditional class format: warm up, main activity and cool down.
The most common way of starting a lesson is to prepare the class physically for doing a
specific type of activity. However, PE-CLIL lessons must provide an introduction that provides
the physical, psychological and language preparation the class will need to complete the
activities that follow. This can be made through a physical game designed to introduce the key
vocabulary. It is well known that the children come to PE lesson ready to move and the game
will direct energy and calm children down. Visual aids to provide instructions could be posted
around the gym. When pupils are ready to listen, the teacher explains the goals of the lesson
and introduces the key vocabulary. Songs, tongue-twisters and introductory games are also
usual, especially with younger learners.
The main activity focuses on knowledge and skills acquisition through practical activities.
In this phase of the lesson language is incorporated in tasks: explaining a game, giving
instructions.
The cool down phase of the lesson is a good time to practice language both orally and in
writing. Activities that can be done: gap-filling, matching exercises.
Every time we finish practicing any physical activity is really important to do some
stretches. Again, as in the warming up session, we are going to start stretching from the bottom
to the top. (Every activity should be well explained so the stretch is well done in every moment)
Some activities that can be used for each phase of the lesson (Improving our skills using
ropes)
Vocabulary and expressions: warm up, work in pairs, joints (ankles, knees, hip...) stretching,
muscles, skill, rope, I like skipping.
49

1. Warm up 15
Ask the students: Whats the first part of a session? Answer: the warm up
Work in pairs: sharing and holding a rope, moving following our partner
Work in pairs near the wall: moving our joints with the help of a rope. Focus on the name of
the joints written on the flashcards
Stretch our leg muscles
Stretch our arm muscles
In pairs: jump over the rope as your partner moves it around the floor
2. Main activity 25
Explain the objective of the session. Ask: what can we do with ropes to improve our skill?
In pairs: Throw and catch the rope. The teacher writes on the board: I like skipping.
In pairs: skipping rope (1 individual)
Co-operative game: shout and jump. Each student has to say the given sentence
Cross without jumping, skip the waves, jump ship, skip in and out once, twice, three times
3. Cool- down 10
Students do stretching exercises (legs and back).
Go to the changing room and get washed and changed!
Assessment in PE lessons
Each class is evaluated, both by the teacher and by their classmates. Together with the
task explanation and instructions the teacher can give a rubric to the students where they find
what main aspects they need to take into account when they are doing the task.
At the same time, pupils will have to fill one self-assessment sheet where they will be
evaluating themselves, so they can become aware of what they have learnt. This is important
in order to improve their behaviour, skills and be able to work better next time. The selfassessment sheet will contain information about research and collecting information, sharing
information with others, completing tasks, contribution, listening to the other members of the
group, co-operating with the team.

CLIL in Kindergarten
Nicoleta Savu, Daniela Agapie, Iorga Irina,Pastorcici Adina, Zanfir Flori-Georgiana
CLIL stands for Content and Language Integrated Learning and refers to teaching
subjects such as science, history, and geography to students through a foreign language.
Every student from kindergarten to university learns a foreign language. The most usual
foreign language in these days is English. To teach preschooler a foreign language is not
difficult because he/she absorbs information like a sponge and you can do this like a game.
Implementing CLIL methodology is a challenging task for teachers, not only for planning
activities and experiences but also for providing students with enough language input to
understand the content.
What do you need? First step of all, the knowledges of are the most important ones. Then
you transform your traditional classroom into a rich bilingual classroom. Structure the
classroom space and routine to provide scaffolding for English young learners language
learning. Print and cut out images of classroom objects, classroom rules, center signs and
furniture then label them in English. Get two copies of each label - one for the storage container
and one for the area where the item is stored. There, in the classroom create a corner, named
English Corner. It will be the English version of your traditional Thematic Corner. Then you
can start to plan the activities.
Planning activities is a challenging task for teachers. There are many simple activities and
materials that can be used or adapted for CLIL activities.
Activities have to be planned to start from students interests and learning styles.
A lesson plan is the instructors road map of what students need to learn and how it will
be done effectively during the class time. Before you plan your lesson, you will first need to
identify the learning objectives for the class meeting. Then, you can design appropriate
learning activities and develop strategies to obtain feedback on student learning.
The lesson plan includes:
- warm-up activity which includes a brainstorming activity or a game for activating previous
knowledge or remembering past sessions;
- main activity which is the core of the session and finally
- plenary, this is a closing activity for summarizing key points of the sessions, asking questions
or expressing feelings and thoughts about the activity.
There are different activities and materials which offer fantastic learning situations and
cognitive development, for example daily routine, activities such as morning circle, calendar,
the weather; songs, rhymes, poems and chants; games and role-play games; books and stories;
audio-visual resources.
53

A good resource plan consists of a schedule that is as detailed as possible for the information
known, and the types of resources needed for each task.
To planning the activities you need to know what you want preschoolers to learn by the end
of your activities. Your message has to be short and easy for understanding.
The techniques most used by teachers in English learning in preschool education are mimic
and gestures to comprehend and assimilate vocabulary and actions; the use of stories, song and
rhymes in order to improve pronunciation, intonation and listening skills; flashcards for
introducing vocabulary and ideas without translating as the images help preschoolers to relate
word and image; oral activities and repetition, which reinforce and encourage language
learning; puppets for increasing learners motivation and participation in activities; games and
ludic activities as a base for preschoolers development and learning at this stage; videos
because they are an attractive material for preschoolers and reinforce listening skills and
vocabulary.
Almost everybody loves playing whether they are young or old. From early childhood,
playing is an enormous part of most childrens lives and it plays a big part of their development
as well.
The games are the easiest way to teach preschoolers a foreign language. They love games
and love to play games.
Many activities can be made into games by making them competitive. With preschoolers,
you can try simple games like True or False, Yes or No, Good or Bad.
Games are a result of child's individual needs and activeness; are free and inspired by a
teacher. Games can and should be used as a teaching method when teaching languages. Games
give preschoolers a chance to be more active and allow them to take on more responsibility.
Games are fun, which is extremely important because they can help activate preschoolers who
may have been inactive before. Games also help preschoolers to build new relationships.
Preschoolers dont see games like something they must or have to do, they play them, have
fun and learn at the same time, without seeing this as a problem to solve.
A teacher's role involves more than simply standing in front of a classroom and lecturing.
Many people consider the role of the teacher an important component of efficient
classroom management, some researchers regard it as part of the design of a methodology or
approach.
Teachers job during centre time in a bilingual classroom is to:
observe if preschoolers use English greetings, words, commands or short phrases (verbs and
verb phrases, nouns and noun phrases);
listen preschoolers English pronounciation while they speak or sing;
model good practices of talking and listening; speak slowly and articulate clearly; repetition is
also required;
ask questions check if preschoolers understand simple questions and answer accordingly;
54

help preschoolers by showing them how to do e.g. Cut! Paste! Stick! Cross! Change!; check
if preschoolers understand simple directions in English;
participate in activities if you are invited by preschoolers initiate simple conversations in
English; use facial expressions, gestures and pictures to reinforce meaning; encourage
preschoolers to speak English (simple words or phrases, even if they are not grammatically
correct);
Praise preschoolers minimal efforts to communicate including use of nonverbal
responses; find ways to recognize their success and display their work.
Observation is the first and most powerful step towards changing teaching practices. Daily
observation reveals a wealth of information about students, their competencies and skills, and
the work of the teacher. This role never stops. The teacher has this role during all the year.
Noting children, the teacher can see who are the everyone gaps and can have the opportunity
to improve theirs. By observing the evolution of children the teacher can self-assess. Observer
teacher it is like the word says, the teacher is only watching the preschoolers while they are
doing an activity in the classroom also leaves the preschoolers to work on their own and the
teacher doesn't interaction with them.
As a monitor, the teacher checks and observs the preschoolers and has to be the center of
information network class. The teacher goes around the class during individual, pair and group
work activities, checking learning. While preschoolers resolve a worksheet or paint or draw,
the teacher takes the monitor role.
As a facilitator, the teacher encourages the preschoolers to participate, contribute with
ideas; checking/clarifying the language; provides an educational atmosphere where
preschoolers have the opportunity to fulfill their potential for intellectual, emotional, physical
and psychological growth. During a game or in a conversation about a different theme, the
teacher takes the facilitator role. The facilitator teacher guides and assists preschoolers in
learning from themselves; offering support and encouragement.
As an assessor, the teacher does two things, that is, correcting mistakes and organizing
feedback. Organizing feedback is an effective way to assess preschoolers' performance so that
they see how well they are doing. The teacher observes throughout the activity, as the teacher
is constantly collecting information about learners work through observing them and maybe
asking/interacting with them at times; giving feedback on performance.
Teachers do not play only one role, they need to think what role they have to adopt when
preschoolers do something or need their help.

The Way of Fulfilling a Bilingual Education in Kindergarten
no 206 in Lodz
Agnieszka Unczur Traciska and Agnieszka Kucharska
Translated by Karolina Michalek
CLIL Bilingual education is subject teaching, which we introduced in Kindergarten no
206 in Lodz, using native and a foreign language, in the way to fulfil program Erasmus +
Bilingual education: a step ahead. Children gained knowledge about the world around them,
using two languages in the same time, which was a big challenge for us because it required a
huge commitment.
The advantage of this curriculum is to integrate a new knowledge with the one that
children have already possessed, using innovative teaching aids, specially created for the
occasion by teacher or aids already existing- used in different, innovative ways.
For teachers carrying out tasks of the project was a great challenge to meet the
methodological requirements CLIL and necessity to adapt to the principles of bilingualism,
pedagogical thinking and the way to prepare for classes.
Obviously, the role of the teacher is unfortunately quite significant the teacher must
make specific aids, draw them, program them, modify or use an existing work, e.g. on the Web.
Operating time, therefore, it is exceedingly longer. On the other hand, the classes are usually
much more interesting, and then aids may be used again in the other way.
On the classes, the preschool teacher was supported by an English teacher, who lead
regular classes introducing vocabulary and grammar of English language. It would be the ideal
situation, but sometimes difficult to organize logistically. Both teachers often found difficulties
in merging two lesson plans in one and introducing it.
In case of methodology CLIL, the teacher has a wide field of activity- he/she may combine
many fields of curriculum in one in this case children study a lot more, research more and
cooperate gladly.
Their works are much more interesting, and it is much easier to get an assessment of children
work. The teacher introduces a new topic, using the vocabulary taught earlier by an English
teacher. He/she warms children up in both languages, turning into a foreign language step by
step. The teacher introduces a new topic and useful vocabulary. He/ she often asks the
questions, tasks that are the main part of classes. The children task is to find an answer by
searching it themselves. The teacher may support them by giving bilingual instructions for the
task (in preschool CLIL education, the method of projects is a great solution). The teacher is
not only a person leading classes, but also supports children. There is possibility to get a full
assessment of kids work, her/his knowledge, his/her language skills.
Fulfilling the teaching of this method, we were using different forms of actionmultimedia presentations, performances, trips, competitions and projects. The cooperation
between schools turned our a great way of teaching, especially institutions from different
countries. The way of teaching seemed to be very similar, and children could gain the
knowledge even in three languages in the same time!
56

Additionally, they could gain the knowledge about other culture, tradition, habits. The
teachers shared the experiences, didactic resources, which were placed on the digital platform
or in the bank of didactic aids.
However, an indispensable element for each teacher was an English language
communication sill in advanced level. We still had to improve our level of vocabulary,
grammar and regularly develop the skills. It was important to use different strategies of
teaching and use a new information technology to make classes very interesting and exciting,
available for kids from different countries for them to be able to share experiences and feelings,
which was useful for learning.
Fulfilling the project was very satisfying for us, whats more it made us ready to improve our
pedagogical and language skills and meet new people through working within other
international Erasmus Projects.
Building CLIL Music Lesson

Figen Polat
Songs, chants and rhymes are popular in EFL classrooms as sources of authentic
language and age appropriate ways of drilling vocabulary and structures. The paper describes
activities related to making and using simple musical instruments that enhance the
effectiveness of English lessons and make them more enjoyable. Key words: content-based
learning, young learners, English lessons, musical instruments, music. Introduction The
question this paper will underpin is: Why not use English as the language of instruction to
teach Music or why not teach English using Music and its content? Getting to know different
musical instruments and their characteristics, making musical instruments and using them to
perform a well-known song, following simple instructions and arrangement in English can
bring novelty and amusement in teaching Music through English in primary school. Teaching
and learning Music plays an important role in childrens development and can be used as a
strong motivational tool in content based learning. Children are surrounded by music from
earliest developmental stages and usually have very positive attitudes towards its content. They
spontaneously engage in experimenting, performing and composing music using objects
around them like their hands and fingers, pencils, cutlery etc. Learning music in primary school
involves listening and appraising, performing and composing. They should all be taught in an
integrated way as this is the way they come naturally to children.
Teaching English to very young and young learners is almost without exception
accompanied by music and its content. Songs, chants and rhymes are popular in EFL
classrooms as sources of authentic language and age appropriate ways of drilling vocabulary
and structures. Vocabulary related to musical instruments appears in many primary English
courses. This content could be explored more thoroughly by making meaningful links between
the two school subjects: Music and English. Children are spontaneously interested in musical
instruments as toys and this interest needs to be exploited in school. These noise makers
should be explored by listening to their sounds, analysing their parts and performing
57

spontaneously as well as in a directed and organised way. Making simple musical instruments,
using them to perform a popular song and compose can be very effective ways of teaching
English through music to young learners. Children and music Even at very early stages of their
development, children show sensitivity to simple rhythmic patterns and melodies. Soundmaking activities (experimenting with pitch, rhythm and form) are the part of everyday play
children engage in. Most children come to school as competent music users and learning should
start with the children's innate capacities and the experiences they bring to the classroom.
Aspects of teaching music in primary school Primary school is not a place where future
professional musicians are trained, but future music consumers and amateur performers. This
is why music lessons should be enjoyable, without any pressure of making mistakes and
obeying the rules. Learning Music at primary school consists of: listening and appraising (age
appropriate discussions about a certain piece of music), performing (singing and playing
instruments) and composing (improvising and experimenting with rhythm and pitch). They are
taught in an integrated way as this is the way they come naturally to children. All these activities
can be done successfully both in Music and English classes. Music and teaching English
Teaching English to very young and young learners is almost without exception accompanied
by music and its content. Songs, chants and rhymes are popular in EFL classrooms as sources
of authentic language and age appropriate ways of drilling vocabulary and structures.
Courses for young learners provide a variety of songs usually followed by gestures,
miming and game-like movements. Children find these activities enjoyable and they can be
used as powerful motivational tool. Vocabulary related to musical instruments is a part of many
childrens courses and exploiting (making and using) musical instruments is a good way of
exploring this content more thoroughly. Childrens instruments Children are spontaneously
interested in musical instruments as toys and this interest needs to be exploited in school.
Instruments can be explored by listening to their sounds, analysing their parts and performing
spontaneously as well as in a directed and organised way. Carl Orff (famous composer and
music pedagog) created an influential method in teaching music to children, suggesting
simplified versions of classic instruments suitable for childrens performance. Childrens
instruments are grouped into several sections (Glover and Ward, 2004): instruments for striking
(tuned and untuned percussion), scraping, shaking, blowing, plucking and electronic
instruments. Making childrens instruments in English classes Childrens instruments can be a
very expensive investment for schools, so teachers often choose to make some of the simpler
ones together with their students and still manage to organise a class orchestra. Crafts are also
very popular in teaching English to young learners as they are a source of authentic language.
Making simple instruments provides teachers with a chance to make a meaningful connection
with Music classes and students with a chance to follow instructions in English as the language
of instruction to create instruments which they will use to perform their favourite songs and
compose their own. Before these crafting activities, the teacher could look into the parts of
instruments more closely with students, teaching them the proper names of these parts and thus
preparing them to make some instruments themselves. Making instruments will fulfill its
purpose only if they are later used for performing and composing. It is possible (and easy) to
adapt songs, chants and rhymes for children to play on their instruments by making simple
arrangements for students favourites. Making arrangements Arrangements can be made by
assigning different parts of songs to different instruments. This can be easily done by drawing
(inserting) symbols the lines (lyrics) of the song.
58

Each instrument plays the parts which contain the corresponding pictures. Practising
with arrangements 1. A brief overview of the teaching steps when practising and playing the
instruments can be: 2. Sing while making simple movements to emphasise the beat of the song.
3. Practise each part of the arrangement (each instrument partition) with the whole class making
movements which produce certain sound effects (similar to the actual sound of the instrument,
if possible). 4. Put students into groups (according to the instruments from the arrangement)
and practise with movements from the previous step. 5. Finally, replace the movements with
the instruments and have your students play different parts of the song while singing.

Building CLIL Art Lessons
Figen Polat
CLIL Art Lessons support classroom experiences that encourage students in all grades to:
create art and reflect upon what they have made.
seek and construct meaning through encounters with art.
create narratives about artworks.
understand the historical and cultural contexts of works of art.
discover the significance and value of art in their lives.
Building a Visual Arts Lesson
Step 1: Generate Learning Objectives
First generate the learning objectives, or goals, for your lesson. The more specific each
objective is, the better. Each objective should describe a specific skill, map to a specific activity
in the lesson, be measurable, and support one or more state or national standards. Set only two
or three objectives for each lesson to keep students focused and reinforce skills.
Step 2: Identify Activities to Support Your Goals
Identify an activity or two that will teach the skills and concepts required to meet your
objectives. Use the Grade-by-Grade Guide to find ideas and activities for your students' grade
level.
Examples:
1) Learning Objective: Students identify the elements of art in a painting.
Activity: Students work in pairs to chart different types of lines (thin, thick, smooth, broken,
etc.), colors (warm, cool, primary, secondary, bright, subdued, etc.), and other elements of art
they see in a specific work of art. You can teach this in the same way you might teach the parts
of speech, for example by having students chart nouns or adjectives in a sentence.
2) Learning Objective: Students research the life and work of an artist and speculate about his
or her artistic intention in a given work.
Activity: Students read information about the artist's history and look at other works of art by
the same artist. They use the information they learn from this research to speculate about why
the artist used certain elements and imagery. For example, student research about Monet's
painting Wheatstacks, Snow Effect, Morning will reveal that the work is part of a series
depicting the same subject at different times of year and day. This information helps students
speculate about the artist's choice of color and line and use of light in this painting.
60

Step 3: Determine Assessment Criteria
Develop criteria that will help you know whether your students have achieved the learning
objectives. Each assessment criterion should describe the results you expect from a student
who has achieved the objective. The assessment criteria should be easily measurable.
Examples:
1) Learning Objective: Students identify the elements of art in a particular painting.
Assessment: Students can verbally point out and name one example of each of the elements
of art in a single work of art. A rubric will help you to measure student success. For example:
Students who can name one example of all elements of art have excellent understanding.
Students who can find examples of 34 of the elements have sufficient understanding.
Students who can only find 1 or 2 examples need more practice!
2) Learning Objective: Students research the life and work of an artist and speculate about his
or her artistic intention in a given work.
Assessment: Students can formulate a theory about why a single element or image is included
in a work of art and support their theory either with information from the artist's biography,
or information found in other works of art by the same artist.
Step 4: Write Lesson Steps
Fill in the details of the lesson steps that will teach the skills. You now know exactly what your
goals (learning objectives) are for the lesson and what kind of outcome you'll be expecting
from your students' work (assessment criteria).

PROCEDURE
Introduction
1. The teacher checks the presence of the students and explains what is the main aim of
todays lesson.
2. Each of the student will get the exercise to do. This helps to divide the class into the 4
groups (attachment 1)
Activities
1. The students take their seats with the groups. The teacher gives them the story and asks
one of the students to read aloud the text (annex 2). At the same time the students in the
groups became the Knights of the Fraction World. Their task is to give the princess freedom.
But if they want to do it they have to solve another 3 exercises. For each exercise the students
will get a key. The more keys they get there will be the more chances for letting the princess
out of the prison.
2. Here are the rules, how to work on this lesson:
There is 20 - 25 minutes to do the exercises
If the group wants to go to the next exercise the participants should finish the current task.
The teacher can give some clue to the team leader if there is a problem with the exercise.
The students will get paper key for each well done tasks
The students will get paper key for each well done tasks.
3. Next the teacher gives the first exercise to do. The team leader has to show the result to the
teacher. If it is correct the group will get the key and the next task. If it is wrong the team has

First prepare a circle by using an iron wire
about 50-60 cm diameters.This game can
be played alone and in a group.Circle is
rounded with using a wooden stick.If this
game play in a group ,parkour must be
250-500 m long.If a person finishes th
is parkour first , he/she wins the game.If this game is played one player the most important thing is
rounding the circle without drop it.

The size and direction of the same forces are called peer force.
Same size but reverse direction forces are called reverse force
Balanced and Unbalanced Forces
Balanced Forces:
If the total force which are applied to an object are zero ,it is called balanced force.
These objects go on the the motion before balanced force applied.If the object is inert it goes on to be inert,if it
is acting,it goes on acting in constant speed.
Body movement is no change in the movement of the body if they're driving while under the influence of
balanced forces and bodies continue to move rapidly fixed
The resultant force acting on the object does not move quickly to zero or constant moves. The influence of
balanced forces.

4- Push means in the same direction by the two people, under the influence of the unbalanced force.
5- The door is pushed in the opposite direction to the forces of different sizes is influenced by the unbalanced
force.
6- Stationary actuated tools, are affected by the unbalanced force. (Actuating force is greater than the frictional
force.)
7- The ball hit the footballer, from that helicopter attack in the falling apple, the upcoming municipal bus stop.
NOTE : 1- Body hard to move fast, indicates that the impact of the balanced force.
2- To move the object of accelerating or decelerating shows that the effect of unbalanced force.

BIRDS IN PARADISE
This story is set in the Caribbean country of Trinidad and Tobago.
It happens on the island of Trinidad.
Its very early in the morning on the tropical island of Trinidad. Colourful tropical birds
are flying everywhere and moving around the trees. Theyre calling to one another and you can
see their beautiful colours among all the different greens of the island. However, theyre not
the only ones who are awake on this early morning. Ornithologist and photographer Roger
Neckles is up and moving too.
For the past ten years, Neckles has been living on the island and taking photographs of
the islands birds. As he walks along, he makes a sound like a hummingbird. He wants to attract
the birds with this bird call - and he does. A hummingbird flies so close by that Neckles can
hear it! We just got buzzed1 by a hummingbird, he says excitedly. Did you hear that?
buzz: pass by very quickly
90

As he continues walking around the island, Neckles talks about the beauty around him.
Its clear that he really loves the place. He describes it as being like heaven2. He talks about
how incredibly beautiful Trinidad is with its many colourful flowers and birds flying
everywhere. Because of this, Neckles feels its just like paradise. So what does he do every day
in this bird paradise?
Neckles talks about his day as he drives into the mountains. This is the best time of the
day for me, he says, getting up at five oclock in the morning... heading off into the sticks3
up in the mountains. As he continues, he describes the area itself, The atmosphere... the
temperature up here... its just fantastic! You breathe pure oxygen!4 He then adds happily,
This is a typical day in the office for me.
Neckles works at the Asa Wright Nature Centre, which attracts ornithologists and bird
lovers from all over the world. People go there especially to view some of the worlds most
attractive and special birds. However, this isnt easy since the birds move very quickly! Neckles
explains that he has to be very fast when he takes photos, or hell miss his opportunity. Just as
he says this, a beautiful purple bird with black on its wings appears. Look at that Purple
Honeycreeper! he points out. Whoa! The colour is so unique5, its a fantastic shade of
purple, he adds as he takes a few photos.
There are about 460 different types of birds on the island. Neckles is trying to photograph
them all, but it takes time. He has to wait for just the right moment. According to Neckles, If
you are not prepared to wait for the [right photographic] shot, you wont get it.
Neckles has studied hummingbird behaviour and bird calls for a long time. He also knows
most things about their way of life, including where they live.
Hummingbirds live in very unsual nests that they build using their beaks and feet.
Neckles comments that the birds are very skillful in the way they make their nests. He explains:
Theyre really strong, they build them on the very edges of branches, and winds come
hurricanes6 will come, and gale force winds 7 and they wont blow down.8

1. Neckles works at home/a nature centre/a school.

(1837-1901)
The story of the Good Earl
Anthony Ashley Cooper

The 7th Earl of Shaftesbury
In the reign of Queen Victoria there lived a famous man called the Earl of Shaftesbury.
He did his best to change the world and to make life better in his lifetime. He spent his whole
life helping the poor, and particularly the helpless and children.
In those days, there were many unhappy boys and girls in England. There were no free
schools and tiny children had to work instead of going to school. Perhaps the little chimneysweeps were the most unhappy. The chimneys were then so narrow inside that only little boys,
or even girls, could get them clean.
When the sweep went to a house early in the morning, he would have a little boy with
him. The poor little fellow had to take off all his clothes, then he was sent up inside the narrow
chimney. If he cried and would not go, he was whipped. Up he had to climb, brushing the
chimney as he went. The soot poured over him, and filled his eyes and his ears. Still he had to
climb. When at last he came to the top, he cried sweep to let his master know that the work
was done. All day long the little boy would work. At night, dirty as he was, he would lie down
to sleep on a bag of soot. It is said that some little chimney-sweeps did not have a bath for a
whole year.
The Earl of Shaftesbury was very sorry for these little boys. He often spoke in the
Parliament about them; and he was not content until a law was passed so that no young children
were sent up chimneys again. Their masters had to do without them, and had to find a better
105

way to sweep the chimneys. This law changed the lives of many children, but the good Earl
knew that there were other little children who had to work hard in factories, from early morning
until late at night. They had no time to play; they never went to school.
Other children had to live and work in the mines. They never saw the bright blue sky
except on Sundays, when they were brought up from the dark. The good Earl tried hard to
change their lives, too. Finally, with his friends, he succeeded in putting this right as well.
Parliament passed a law that no little boys or girls were to work in a factory or down a mine.
The Earl was also very fond of animals. He did not like to see the way some people illtreated donkeys pulling carts and barrows through the streets of London. So he said that he
would give prizes for the best kept donkeys. It was not long before London donkeys were the
best in the land. The Earl had a beautiful barrow himself, with his name on it. If a man was too
poor to buy a barrow to carry his goods to the market, the Earl would lend him his. He was sure
to have a good sale as many people were very anxious to buy apples and potatoes from the
Earl's barrow.
The Earl was, indeed, a friend to all who were in trouble. Once he held a strange meeting.
Everyone there, except himself was a thief! There were four hundred of them. He was not afraid
to be among them. He spoke to them, and told them he could help them to be honest men. Some
were very glad to have the chance, and the Earl sent them across the seas. There, in a new
country, they were able to start a better and useful life.
No wonder there was great sorrow when the Earl of Shaftesbury died. He had spent his
life doing good.

Handout 2
If you go to Britain in the summer, you will almost certainly see hundreds of people
walking and lying by the riverside, trying to get a suntan or relaxing on little boats. Rivers
are very popular, and they always have been, but for lots of different reasons. Since the
beginning of time, man has used them to find fresh water for drinking, irrigating and
cleaning. After man invented the boat, rivers also became a fundamental resource for
transport. It is not surprising then that over time, lots of towns and cities developed along
the banks of navigable rivers.
Britain is a country with a particularly high number of rivers (and later canals, which were
developed on an earlier Roman system), and the names of many cities reveal their
connection with water. A city with the name 'ford' for example (Oxford Stratford etc) was
certainly founded on a river at a point where the water was low and it was possible to cross
(at Oxford people could take their oxen across). A place name including the word 'bridge'
will obviously also indicate the presence of a river (Cambridge, Trowbridge, etc) and a city
ending in 'mouth' (Portsmouth, Exmouth, Bournemouth) was built at the mouth of a river,
where it meets the sea. River life has also influenced the language in other ways. For
example, in old English a 'rival' was someone who took water from the other side of the
river bank from you.
Unfortunately, lots of the rivers became so polluted that they were more of a problem for
agriculture than a resource, but today many of them are clean again, so they can be a
valuable part of our environment once more. Today rivers are important for giving us water
for irrigation, for fishing and of course, for having fun.
Read the text. True or false? Write T or F. Correct the false sentences.
__ Many people in Britain like rivers.
__ In Oxford it wasn't possible to cross the river.
__ All places with the word 'mouth' in their name are inland.
__ Polluted rivers are a resource for agriculture.
Choose the correct alternative: a, b or c.
Many cities developed on rivers because
a. it was easy to transport goods on boats.
b. you could get a suntan.
c. they are a relaxing place.
The canal system in Britain
a. has given the names to lots of cities.
b. was first created by the Romans.
c. developed very late.
A lot of towns and cities

b. have meeting places around a river.
c. include a word in their names related to rivers.

Didactic resources: Projector
WARM UP
Activity 1th: Paintings
Generally the teacher displays paintings by various painters and asks:
What are we looking at?
Do you have any painting at home?
If so, can you describe it to us?
Where can we find many notable paintings?
Have you ever visited an art gallery?
Do you know about the Louvre famous gallery?
Do you like to paint? If so, why.
PROCEDURES
Activity 2th: Wassily Kandinsky
The teacher shows the photograph of the painter Kandinsky via
display , she reports some elements of Wassily Kandinsky
Wassily Kandinsky was born in Moscow on 16th of December 1866.
He was a pioneered Russian painter.
He grew up in Odessa, where his father Wasily Kandinsky worked as a tea dealer.
He studied law and economics at the University of Moscow.
125
At the age of 30 he abandoned a promising career as a professor of Roman Law to study

painting in Munich.
Notably Kandinsky was inspired by abstract art completely at random. One night, as he was
returning home, he saw something that surprised him. One of his painting had fallen and
stood sideways, on whom fell the light from the power pole. The outline and designs had
disappeared and mingled with the rest of the composition. It had just left the general
impression of something bright and unusual. Since then, Kandinsky did not paint a painting
again with specific content, only an abstract.
In 1920 he had begun to paint again, introducing the paintings of geometric forms. These
forms, which were soon to become completely abstract.
Wasily Kandinsky lived in Paris from 1926 to 1939 where he acquired French citizenship.
He died on December 13, 1944, at the age of 78 years.
Activity 3rd:
What is abstract art?
The teacher shows a classical painting of Demetrius
Gyzis and one of Kandinsky and asks children to
express their views freely
Activity 4th
I recognize shapes
The teacher shows Kandinsky is paintings and she allows children to express themselves
freely around themes and colors and everything else they are surprising and interesting for the
Kantiski tables. Then she shows again the paintings and asks: Do you observe and recognize
shapes like circle, square introducing the concept of the shapes through art.
Activity 5th:
Concentric circles
126
The teacher displays the feature table of Kandinsky "Concentric

circles" and introduces the mathematical concept of concentric,
circles with common center and different radius. Then she asked
freely the children to imagine other shapes which could be
concentric and which differ in their dimensions.
Then the teacher asks children to draw an analog painting with
same concentric designs which differ the colors, as the painting
of the Kantiski or various other shapes concentrically.
Activity 6th
I paint as Wassily Kandinsky
The teacher gives worksheets with

drawings from the Kandinsky paintings and
at the same time she shows the original
painting in order for students to observe
them, to recognize shapes and colors and
then they paint them accordingly or freely.
On each new painting that they create and
that is an imitation of the original. They
give a new title.
FOLLOW UP :
Activity 7th:
Paintings imitating
Finally the teacher shows some other paintings of Kandinsky and
students create their own paintings imitating the style of
Kandinsky and colors of listening to Russian music. Their works
are posted in various areas of the classroom or in a corner of the
central school to see them and other students and they know the
famous Russian painter Kandinsky while understanding how
shapes and mathematics can become art.

Aims: Identify the art with Surrealism
Content: introduction to Dal and surrealism
Language: artistic skills
Skills: listening and speaking/writing
Lexis: vocabulary to describe paintings the objects in the painting, colours and shades (can
be adapted according to language level of students)
Preparation
All you need for this lesson is one copy of the description of the picture for you, a copy of the
picture to show the students for example this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swans_Reflecting_Elephants and (optional) copies of the
description for the students.
Procedure
Tell your students to get out a blank sheet of paper and drawing materials.
Read out the description of the picture one line at a time and let students draw what you
describe. You might prefer to read the whole description once before students start to draw
and then read one line at a time. Read at a speed suitable for the language ability of the
students and give enough time for students to draw before reading the next line. If your focus
is art then give more time, if language is more important give less time. You may need to

Great education begins with a great kindergarten experience

-
Together for the children
Kindergarten and community
Kindergarten is a preschool educational approach traditionally based on playing,

singing, practical activities and social interaction as part of the transition from home to school.
Sea pearls Kindergarten is one of the best public early childhood institutions in
Constanta, Romania (with 230 children and 8 groups: Albatrosses, Golden Fish, Happy
Seagulls, Seahorses, Singing Fish, Little Sailors, Starfish, Wise Little Dolphins). It is a 10
hours, 5 days program that provides a creative, supportive, nurturing learning environment for
children (three meals and sleep session available). The kindergarten provides extensive
opening hours that take account of the needs of working parents. The all-day kindergarten is
the most wanted by working parents who have their offices and work places in the center of
the city.
Community a real partner
This is a social unit who share something in common, such as norms, values, identity
and often a sense of place that is situated in a given geographical area.
Every day children learn about people and places in their community when they
accompany their teachers or parents in walks, visits and kindergarten activities.
The Kindergarten by implementing several projects, is searching for solutions through
which it can be useful to society and seen as its investments and hopes.
How can we, the Magic Pearls Parents Association, promote the interests of our
kindergarten in our community? Well, the children and teachers are the image of every
kindergarten. That`s why publishing information about their success outside the kindergarten
is so important. Even if we talk about it, or any other means, the dissemination of this message
is done in local newspapers, television and web page and by flyers and posters in the notice
board at the kindergarten. Every activity conducted in our community has been publicized by
the local press, such as: Dancing for the Sea, Gingerbread House.
147
The partnership between kindergarten and community
a)
Collaborating with school is so important because this institution will continue the
child`s education. This has the important goal in identifying the most efficient ways of
children`s adapting to the new educational environment. Sea Pearls Kindergarten organized
visits at the schools in its neighborhood, such as: Ion Jalea, Jean Bart or Application School.
b)
Collaborating with the city hall in this area can be mentioned the collaboration of the
Parents Association with the local administration and City Hall in the Board of Directors for
the kindergarten.
c)
Collaborating with the local police through activities of road education with the
participation of professionals, or participation at Police Anniversary.
d)
Collaborating with the church community
e)
Other institutions, such as: medicine, ONG, private partners, mass-media:
Our Association collaborated with kindergarten teachers in activities organized with parents
that are doctors.
The partnership between kindergarten and family
Family is a fundamental social group in society, typically consisting of one or two parents and
their children. The educational activity in kindergarten can`t be separated of other influences
on the child, especially the family one. The collaboration between these two influences is
realized through a double sense approach.
In Sea Pearls Kindergarten, the Magic Pearls Parents Association has the mission to:
strengthen the bond between the Perluele mrii/Sea Pearls Kindergarten and parents
by encouraging communications in both directions;
support activities designed to enhance preschoolers' educational experience;
keep parents informed about the kindergarten, its background, present programs, and
future plans;
promote the advancement of the kindergarten by strengthening it at all levels;
provide families with the opportunity to become an active part of the kindergarten
community by direct involvement in events, projects and activities designed to enhance the
success and growth of preschoolers.
The MP Parents Association values and involves families in meaningful and respectful
ways in the activities of the kindergarten. The association welcomes all parents active
participation and invite them to join them in supporting preschoolers activities:
a)
Meetings with parents are periodically and formal organized; all parents are usually
participating.
148

b)
Parents counseling are meetings set with the teacher or school adviser, in which both
parts are privately discussing about the child.
c)
Workshops with parents are activities in which are approached subjects of interest for
many parents.
d)
Participating of group`s activities as a simple observer or together with the teacher and
children (reading stories for the children, singing, painting).
e)
Volunteering: as volunteers, parents can use their knowledge and abilities to support
the kindergarten provide optimal conditions for the educational activities. Eg: Micul
Roterdam.
All children, no matter where they live or their life circumstances, deserve a quality
education. However, it takes everyonehome, school, and communityto make that happen.
While schools have the responsibility to reach out to families, family and community members
also need to actively make contact and work with educators. This responsibility is a two-way
street.
In Sea Pearls Kindergarten, parents are encouraged to talk, creatively interact with each
other and share their experiences and points of view. And even more, they are reminded the
importance of a good and continue communication with their children. First, parents need to
listen, ask and understand the way children see things, what they want to do and what is
important to them.
This cooperating must be a reciprocal learning exercise, with significant results both for
the participants and the organizations involved.
All parents want teachers to provide individual attention for each child and individual
temperaments, learning styles and language preferences to be fully respected. A good early
childhood educational program provides a variety of physical activities (inside and outside)
and varies instruction to maintain the interest of each child. We as parents, have found all this
at Perluele mrii/Pearls of the Sea Kindergarten and we are content with our choice for our
children.

SWOT ANALYSIS OF THE PROJECT
STRENGTHS
WEAKNESSES
good online and offline communication with the

coordinator and the project partners (phone calls, mobile
chat, Skype, Facebook, e-mails)
developing professional competences in terms of
bilingual teaching with the use of CLIL
improving skills in creating educational resources
developing teachers skills of writing curricula and
methodological resources for bilingual education
improving teaching skills
improving English communication skills
a very good level of collaboration between partners and
coordinator
increasing motivation to learn, especially English
language
excellent exchange of good practices
change of attitude and opinion towards cultural
diversity, overcoming stereotypes
making acquaintance with the European educational
systems
better understanding of the European partners history
and culture
parents have been informed and became very interested
about CLIL and preschool bilingual education (meetings,
workshops and open activities in classrooms)
learning the target language effectively in "real"
experiences, while having a purpose.
learning the subject at a deeper level, while thinking
about concepts in two languages.
The project involves clearly defined objectives and
purposes.
It helps to give the tasks to all institutions in the
right time limit.
Teaches are well prepared and experienced
The group of teachers besides doing their
everyday responsibilities they also want to
improve their workshop, use the innovative
teaching methods. They understand the need of
using a foreign language.
Innovation
This project is innovative what gives the positive
influence on teachers and students work. It
protects from getting into the routine and
demands more creative activities from all
partners.
delays at programme start-up

requires more preparation time and greater co-operation
among teachers.
OPPORTUNITIES
THREATS
introduce the Erasmus+ project intellectual outputs and

results to a wide audience both at local and national
levels
bilingual education based on CLIL methodology will
be a permanent part of School-Based Curriculum in the
next school years
A large number of partners

In each country the lesson plans are written in a
different manner and that is why it is difficult to
adjust the same methods of preparing the
documents like: lesson plans;
The free time from work (Christmas free days,
winter holidays, summer holidays) is different in
every country. It caused some problems with
doing the unexpected activities.
Different level of English knowledge among the partners
English language is a foreign language for all
partners so it wasnt easy to discuss the details in
the documents
No additional hours for bilingual lessons.
The C method assumes that the student knows
the facts in his/her mother tongue and therefore
he/she learns them in a foreign language.
Because there werent enough hours for bilingual
lessons the teachers explained some new material
in the first language and the foreign language at
the same time.
lack of SMART board technology in kindergartens

teachers cannot explore more fully how to integrate
SMART board technology into their planning and
teaching during the activities
a lack of interest from teachers in improving their
English teaching skills
150

curricular documents on preschool education can be
used in order kindergartens to apply good bilingual
preschool programs
the current project team of teachers can help
improving other teachers professional profile and
increase motivation for further bilingual teaching
development
meeting new teachers and students.
exchanging ideas.
The students engagement in the class
Leading bilingual lessons increases students
interest and activity and who are willing to learn
new vocabulary, do the exercises, respond to
questions, or discuss (sometimes they even
argued how to perform a task);
In most cases students give up speaking in their
native language, and to communicate they use a
foreign language - in this case English. It will
have a very positive impact on the development
of the language skills of students participating in
the program.
Bilingual teaching increases the impact on the
students concentration, therefore, in the future
this will be positively reflected on the results of
teaching of any subject and also the comfort of
the teacher.
Parents support
Parents are aware, that at the present time it is
necessary to use a foreign language. As a result
they accepted a new method of teaching a
particular subject and the second language at the
same time. However , some of them will require
additional information in this topic .
Improving the schools image
Bilingual teaching - still as novum in the Polish
education it will contribute to a significant
improvement of the image of the school in the
local society
low interest from other teachers in applying bilingual

education during classes
lack of consistency in applying bilingual education
programs
low support from parents in continuing the bilingual
education or learning English at home
Keeping a fair balance between language teaching and
subject teaching.
The difficulties in communication
Lack of response for emails or sending late answers,
imprecise expression of needs and expectations given by
the persons who are responsible for exchanging
information, occasional problems between the host
teacher and the assistant teacher according to appropriate
aids and materials needed for lessons - communication in
distance .
Fear of travelling
Due to the political situation in the world (the
threat of terrorist attacks) some participants had a
fear of traveling to the partner countries.
A summary
The analysis shows that the best way to strengthen weaknesses and the weakness of the threats is:
