clilyouThis is the 4CLIL project as it appears on our Moodle:

Este é o proxecto para 4ºCLIL tal e como aparece na nosa aula virtual:

The final group project this year will take you a lot of time and work, but it will be worth it. It is going to be about food, music, historical costumes, acting, filming…all of it framed by a historical perpective. In groups, you will film a video in which you (dressed with historical costumes) will appear cooking a history-related recipe as well as giving step-by-step instructions for making that dish and commenting on its relationship to a particular historical period. The main elements of this cross-curricular project will be:

O último proxecto en grupo deste ano vaivos levar bastante tempo e bastante traballo, pero pagará a pena. Vai tratar de gastronomía, música, roupa relacionada con contidos históricos, teredes que actuar e filmar…todo dende unha perspectiva histórica. En grupos, gravaredes un vídeo no que apareceredes vestidos/as con roupa de época cociñando unha receita relacionada cun período histórico dando instrucións para cociñala e comentando a relación dese prato co período histórico elixido. Os elementos principais deste proxecto interdisciplinar serán: Continue Reading

At the IES Cañada Blanch

And then came the rain…After the transport thing got sorted out, water started falling from the sky, but nothing could stop us from going on with the things planned. Our scheduled visit to the IES Cañada Blanch in Portobello Road took place thanks again to Xaime Varela, as lovely as usual (see his blog here: http://galegoenlondres.blogspot.co.uk). Our students were talking to Xaime’s British and Spanish students there. Then, Antía Suárez and Sara Riveiro gave a wonderful bilingual presentation about Negreira and our IES Xulián Magariños, which had been prepared by all our students.

E chegou a choiva…Despois de que o conto do transporte se arranxase, a auga comezou a caer do ceo, pero nada puido evitar que seguísemos adiante co que tiñamos planeado. A nosa visita ao IES Cañada Blanch en Portobello Road tivo lugar grazas de novo a Xaime Varela, que, coma sempre estivo encantador (mirade o seu blog aquí: http://galegoenlondres.blogspot.co.uk). O noso alumnado estivo falando cos alumnos e alumnas británicos e españois de Xaime. Despois, Antía Suárez e Sara Riveiro fixeron unha presentación bilingüe estupenda sobre Negreira e o noso IES Xulián Magariños, que prepararan todos e todas antes.

imageAfter the first day usual difficulties (it is always difficult to get used to new food and get accomodated in a new house with a new family), everything is getting on very well. Today was the welcome day and the kick-off of our project. Our kids had a wonderful time!.
Despois das dificultades esperables do primeiro día (é sempre difícil afacerse a nova comida e a instalarse nunha nova casa cunha nova familia), todo está saíndo perfectamente. Hoxe foi o día da benvida e do inicio do proxecto. Os nosos rapaces e rapazas pasárono xenial!

ImageHow can we make our CLIL students create a presentation about city life through Glogster? Here you can find an example of a CLIL task dealing with those topics. This is the way our students (3ESO, CLIL-Geography first year) could find it on our Moodle:

Como podemos facer que o noso alumnado CLIL cree unha presentación sobre a vida na cidade mediante Glogster?. Aquí podedes atopar un exemplo de tarefa CLIL relacionada co tema. A seguir atoparedes a tarefa, tal e como a presentamos ao noso alumnado (3ESO, Xeografía-CLIL, ano 1) no Moodle:

INTRODUCTION/ INTRODUCIÓN

During this term we have been studying and practising descriptions and lexicon related to city life (transport, buildings, shops…) and you are now studying the service sector with Clara in the CLIL class. Continue Reading

CLIL TIPS: Let’s Create a GMap / SUXESTIÓNS CLIL: Imos crear un GMap

ImageToday I am sharing a project I have just done with my 3ESO-CLIL students (first year in CLIL). Since they are learning Geography in English with Clara, their CLIL teacher, I decided to integrate Geographic contents in my language lessons as well. As a language coordinator, what I do is anticipate the language necessary for the CLIL class as well as integrate non-linguistic curricular contents in my lessons, in such a way that the students feel a sense of coherence in what we both do.

Hoxe vou compartir un proxecto que acabo de facer co meu alumnado CLIL de 3º da ESO (primeiro ano en CLIL). Como están a aprender xeografía en inglés con Clara, a profe CLIL, decidín integrar contidos de xeografía nas miñas clases de lingua. Como coordinador da sección bilingüe, o que fago é anticipar a linguaxe necesaria para as clases CLIL, así como integrar contidos curriculares non lingüísticos nas miñas, de tal xeito que o alumnado perciba certo grao de coherencia no que facemos ambos os dous.

The following project is H.O.T.S. (Higher Order Thinking Skills) CALP (Cognitive Academic Language Proficiency) oriented. The starting point is the students’ own context and the project is based on content research, development of digital literacy and written language production. This is the way we presented it to our students on our Moodle:

O seguinte proxecto está pensado para que o alumnado desenvolva H.O.T.S. e CALP.  O punto de partida é o propio contexto do alumnado e o proxecto baséase na investigación relacionada co contido, no desenvolvemento da literacidade dixital e na produción da lingua escrita. Así llo presentamos ao alumnado na nosa aula virtual:
