 - CLIL approaches encourage cooperation with colleagues from different disciplines.

■ Content is related to learning and thinking (cognition). To enable the learners to create their own interpretation of content, it must be analysed for its linguistic demands; thinking processes (cognition) need to be analysed in terms of their linguistic demands; 
■ Language needs to be learned through communication, reconstructing the content and its related cognitive processes. This language needs to be transparent and accessible; interaction in the learning context is fundamental to learning. This has implications when the learning context operates through the medium of a foreign language;

When teachers use the school lingua franca (SLF) for teaching, they can tell the students everything they want them to know, and the students can understand them. However, when they teach their subject using a new language, this isn’t possible. Because of this, they have to show students how to find out information for themselves, and how to work and talk together to discover new ideas, so that using the language becomes part of the process of learning. In other words, the teachers have to change their methodology, and find different ways to help students learn. By doing this, the teacher prepares young students for the modern world, where people work in project teams; use other languages to talk to various colleagues and to communicate with people in different countries. They are expected to solve problems, plan their own work and find out things for themselves using a range of sources, especially the Internet. CLIL, then, is designed to prepare young people for the future. It provides the first step to learning and understanding independently 
..............
 It is difficult to learn a language out of context. Traditionally, language teachers use course books which are topic-based, and which can be irrelevant to the learner’s life. In contrast, learning language in the context of a school subject can be motivating, as it has a clear purpose which is relevant to the student. 
.................
 Asking children to share their learning with their parents is motivating not just for the students themselves, but for the parents too. ]]> 2017-01-25 17:47:42 UTC https://padlet.com/giraldi_elena/q2p9wo42tew6/wish/149404998 giraldi_elena https://padlet.com/giraldi_elena/q2p9wo42tew6/wish/149422885

This suggests that traditional approaches to the teaching of vocabulary, in which the number of new words taught in each class was carefully controlled (words often being presented in related sets), is much less effective in promoting vocabulary growth than simply getting students to spend time on silent reading of interesting books.]]> 2017-02-01 15:07:01 UTC https://padlet.com/giraldi_elena/q2p9wo42tew6/wish/150853818 giraldi_elena https://padlet.com/giraldi_elena/q2p9wo42tew6/wish/151410257

Students read a lot and read often.

There is a wide variety of text types and topics to choose from.

The texts are not just interesting: they are engaging/ compelling.

Students choose what to read.

Reading purposes focus on: pleasure, information and general understanding.

Reading is its own reward.

There are no tests, no exercises, no questions and no dictionaries.

Materials are within the language competence of the students.

Reading is individual, and silent.

Speed is faster, not deliberate and slow.

The teacher explains the goals and procedures clearly, then monitors and guides the students.

The teacher is a role model…a reader, who participates along with the students.
