John Clegg states the importance of CLIL teachers collaborating with others to create a powerful learning system.
"  Teachers who teach their subject in a second language often have to collaborate. Of course we know that all teachers need to collaborate for one reason or another, but CLIL teachers need it more than most".

code.org is a free and online community where students can create their own interactive stories, games and animations. Activities are aimed at increase computional thinking.
In this community we can also find “scratch”, a free programming language.
My experiments with the webtool :

The use of technologies during CLIL lessons (Week 2)

I think that the use of technologies in our classrooms is very important.

Webtools are also very helpful in CLIL lessons, they are a vehicle to encourage young

students to acquire new concepts and notions through the use of a foreign language

(this is difficult).

I’m sure that technologies are able to increase motivation during the lessons.

I don’t have CLIL experience because I’m a special needs teacher in a primary school.

Last year I used with my pupils the platform code.org and they had much fun.

The basis of CLIL is that content subjects are taught and learnt in a language which is not the mother tongue of the learners.

Knowledge of the language becomes the means of learning content

Language is integrated into the broad curriculum

Learning is improved through increased motivation and the study of natural language seen in context. When learners are interested in a topic they are motivated to acquire language to communicate

CLIL is based on language acquisition rather than enforced learning

Language is seen in real-life situations in which students can acquire the language. This is natural language development which builds on other forms of learning

CLIL is long-term learning. Students become academically proficient in English after 5-7 years in a good bilingual programme

Fluency is more important than accuracy and errors are a natural part of language learning. Learners develop fluency in English by using English to communicate for a variety of purposes

Reading is the essential skill.

K as "Kills two birds with one  stone!"
Clil is a "dual focus" methodology, fostering the development of language competences and the delivery of subject content at the same time.

Hello! My name's Silvia and I'm a special needs teacher in a primary school in Pesaro. I never used clil methodology in my teaching, but I like to learn more about. I hope that my english will be enough "strong" to start in a good way this interesting course.
