science_topics_primary

dear colleagues, here you find the science planning grid containing a commented summary of the Science-CLIL syllabus, a list of topics numbered 0-10, a list of useful web resources and bibliography hints. The syllabus was implemented in a 5th class of primary school. A lesson plan outline was added in order to get an idea on how a Clil unit may develop; but CLIL is not a "method" and therefore any kind of different methodological approach may be right and suitable for your class. The focus is finding the balance and integration between content and language, culture and cognition. I hope you'll enjoy the bird's view on the CLIL lessons, which need personal "touch" and a more detailed single lesson planning. The switching from lessons in Italian to lessons in English was one of the core-features of the whole yearly syllabus. A special thank to all those that have made this experience possible. Any comment, implementation, suggestion is highly recommended and welcome! For further contacts email mariaelena.picone@unibz.it
