  1. EXPERIMENTING The Respiratory and Circulatory Systems M. Antònia Berga Sabaté CEIP Francesc Macià

  2. SÚRIA • There are 6,200 inhabitants. • There is a potash mine. • It is 80 Km from Barcelona.

  3. About 200 pupils from 3 to 12 attend the school. • Less than 8 % of the pupils are immigrants. • The school is involved in several projects: ICT, Green School and CLIL.

  7. Main goals • To learn content through English. • To improve and reinforce the English linguistic competence and confidence of the pupils. • To raise awareness of learning through a language which is not L1.

  8. THEORETICAL APPROACH • Social Constructivism (Vygotsky). • The 4 Cs Framework. • The 3 As Tool. • Bloom’s Taxonomy. • Multiple Intelligences Theory(Gardner). • Scaffolding.

  9. CLIL Project: EXPERIMENTING The Respiratory and Circulatory Systems

  10. A general overview Lesson plans • LESSON 1: “THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM” • Introduction to the Respiratory System. • Organs and function of the Respiratory System. • Carrying out an experiment. • Making a model of our lungs. • Building up a display. • LESSON 2: “THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM” • Introduction to the Circulatory System. • Carrying out two experiments. • Blood Circulation. • The heart. • The Circulation.

  11. Examples of ACTIVITIES From Theory to Practice: Bringing CLIL to a real classroom. Pair work and reading comprehension

  12. Language Frames

  13. Carryingout Experiments.Collaborative works.

  14. Games

  15. Quizzes to play on line to play in two teams

  16. CONCLUSIONS CLIL implies much more than teaching content in English CLIL is a big challenge to update our school. Future development To create more units and materials for year 5 and 6. To explainthe main issues of CLIL to the rest of the school teachers.

The most stimulating and engaging teaching and the best learning occur when science is brought to life and pupils are given the chance to conduct, record and evaluate their own investigations.” Christine Gilbert It’s up to you!
