“Learning another language is not only learning different words for the same things, but learning another way to think about things.”
Flora Lewis

OBJECTIVES:

1. Learn about CLIL and the benefits of using CLIL in the classroom

2. Discover some examples of CLIL activities they can use in your classroom

3. Explore different tools and resources for CLIL lessons

3.1 What is CLIL?
- CLIL means using a foreign or second language as a medium of instruction and learning for primary, secondary and/or vocational-level subjects such as maths, science, art,  and business.
- a CLIL lesson is not a language class but a subject class taught in a certain language.
- CONTENT AND LANGUAGE INTEGRATED LEARNING.
CLIL is an innovation by European Commission.

it can boast motivation.

you learn a subject in a Language that is not your mother-tongue.
SO it is not a Language lesson.

Students learn a foreign Language while being taught a specific subject.
it is a PEDAGOGICAL APPROACH.

3.2 The benefits of including CLIL within school curricula

“CLIL allows students to learn a language without needing teachers to explicitly teach it,
which creates a more motivating and meaningful lesson"
BENEFITS:
-motivation
- Learning a Language without teaching it
- develops collaborative competences (team activity)
- development of transversal skills (creativity, critical thinking, communicative skills)
- students gain new knowledge while using Language.

3.3 Implementing CLIL activities
in a CLIL lesson all the 4 skills are used in an integrated way

4c model - LANGUAGE INTEGRAATED LEARNING.

3.4 Technology tools for CLIL and other resources

- video
- web tools
- apps
- multimedia

see videos 1 and 2

the EOL: It odels your school towards a Language friendly leaarning environment.

MATRIX: a dynamic tool.

3.5 Examples of CLIL activities in the classroom

- use peer Learning and programming while practising a foreign Language.
yonger students teach to older or vice-versa
- art and Language: "Picasso dictation": the teacher describes a picture and students draw.
- history and laanguage: listening to causes of World War the second listening to a BBC program.
- music and Language

it is important to be aware of the linguistic abilities of our students, but  it is essential to make use of this knowledge.

2.2 The benefits of embracing linguistic diversity
Linguistic and cultural diversity in the classroom presents a tremendous challenge for teachers and students.
taking on a different role as a teacher
switch roles with your pupils

value other Language students.

2.4 Implementing classroom activities
- present key languages in the different languages of the classrrom
- teams of different languages, with songs sung in different languages

Module 1: The importance of language awareness 

# data[].attributes.body
During this module, participants will:

1. Understand and discuss the importance of language awareness

2. Become familiar with European Union initiatives that support language learning and language awareness.

3. Explore the first part of the Learning Scenario (in order to develop your own, at the end of the MOOC)

1.2 What is language awareness?

it is crucial that every teacher be conscious about the different languages their students speak in the classroom, and also understand the possible challenges but also opportunities that a variety of languages in their classroom present to them.
*  E.Hawkins, the father of Language Awareness

L.A. it is explicit knowledge about language, and conscious perception and sensitivity in language learning, language teaching and language use.

BICS (Basic Interpersonal Communication Skills), which refers to the language commonly used in social interaction, and CALP (Cognitive Academic Language Proficiency), referring to more formal language, essentially the language of schooling, which is crucial for students to successfully demonstrate what they have learned and achieved.

1.3 Why language awareness is important for Teachers?
- make sure that languages in your classroom do not pose a barrier or a challenge for your students’ learning.
- when teaching in a different language than the one students are familiar with, this language is key, as it becomes the vehicle to delivering the message to our students.

1.4 How to get started with language awareness
* The first step to becoming a language-aware teacher is to be conscious of the different languages that your students speak in the classroom.
* Opening up the classroom practice to allow students to use their home language helps to develop a deeper understanding of language awareness.
* If you allow these children to use their home language you transform their ability to access content material and you transform their ability to develop an identity of competence, and this means they are not condemned to use six months’ or a year of non-participation, because you allow them to contribute in a much fuller and much more cognitively demanding way.
