It has been a very rich experience that I would like to repeat without
any doubt. It is a pity not to have enough time to prepare activities to use in my lessons. The idea is to create a wiki, step by step...

Thursday,
2nd March 2017
Talking about The Bangalere Project. Prabhu
(1982)
Aims: today is the time
to study about the Scaffolding to support:
1) Content obligatory
language
2) Content compatible
language
Handouts
about scaffolding language and sentence frames specifically in Maths and Science.
3) Design : following
the “Template of PowerPoint slides to
include in TBL ( tasked based learning) lesson”
All the teachers begun to work in groups or individualy, and this is my first work about systems of linear equations.https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4i8YHkJ3ev-MWZ5Q2cwanluaXM/view?usp=sharing

Workshop on CLIL Methodology with Graham Workman
Tuesday,
28th February 2017
The four following days, we studied with Graham
Workman which actions honour his name.
A lot of original tasks, different tasks, and a
lot of information on his webpage. We laughed and enjoyed in his lessons and I
would like to practice some of the tasks I learned as soon as possible.
After a presentation (have a look at its rich in contents
webpage), we tried to answer the following questions: Why teach CLIL? , and
some keys are:
1) International
language of Science
2) Live, study and
work abroad
3) Provides useful qualifications
4) It works…. When it
is task-based.
Aims:
1) Activities
2) Vocabulary revision
3) Design of CLIL
material
4) WEBS, podcasts
5) Classroom language (Accurate
language)
Handouts to work: Wall dictation, visuals, collocations, minds….

- Workshop on CLIL Methodology with Dr Diana Hicks
Monday, 27th
February
The second week was really intense. Classes
began at 09:00 am, at the Isbourne Centre. In this building we could take some
coffee or tea and have the packed lunch that our host family prepared for us: sandwiches, fruit, yogurt, cakes, etc. We didn´t have much time to rest but enough to exchange some words with other European
teachers. We finished our lessons about five pm.
We met Diana Hicks,
She is an expert teacher in CLIL methodology
and she was explaining the meaning, the aims, the characteristics and
the steps of Learning Integrated Language Content in detail.
Some of my notes during the day are summarized.
I recommend you have a look at the links of bibliography and webgraphy
(Links of book)
To start, a brainstorming, the question is: what would you like to know about CLIL?
1) How can CLIL help me teach Maths?
2) One classroom only?
Flexible?
3) How is CLIL
transforming learning across EU?
4) CLIL pedagogy
5) Mixed: proficiency/ability
6) “Block teachings”:
integrate writing and learning
7) Students speaking English
During the day she was talking about the answers
and others, we told her our experiences in CLIL and we did some activities to
understand the process and to see how CLIL can be used in all subjects.
The first activity was a surprise for me, I
mean for its results. It was a debate
about the questionnaire we had filled about the Rules of L1 (mother tongue) and
L2 (second language, English in our case). Surprisingly, we did not have the same
idea regarding CLIL. We were teachers from:
Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, Germany, Holland, Norway and Bulgaria.

SOUTH WALES
Sunday, 26th February 2017
Today we had an Educational visit to South Wales. It has been a long day !
At 7:45 am all the 2nd week course European teachers met outside Cheltenham town Hall. Neil introduced us to each other during our way to The
Big Pit National Coal Mining Museum of Wales at Blaenavon World Heritage Site https://museum.wales/bigpit/ while
he showed us the beautiful countryside and explained some curiosities about the
area: in Wales all the advertisements are written in both languages, Welsh and
English. Imagine you could only see this sign “Amgueddfa Lofaol Cymru” (it means National
Coal Museum)
Oh my god! What a strange sensation to be at 90 m2 underground. “It is
true that you can experience the sights,
sounds, smells and atmosphere of an authentic coal mine”. Unfortunately, my English level is not high
enough to understand Welsh people, they have a hard accent and it was difficult
to follow the explanations during the visit. But the miner who guided the one-hour tour
underground was very patient with us and repeated all that we required
him to repeat quietly.
Then, we spent two hours walking along St Fagans Welsh National History
Museum, Cardiff. It is an open-air Museum of Welsh life and St Fagans
Castle, where you can explore how people in Wales have lived, worked and spent
their leisure time. It was raining a lot and I couldn´t enjoy much.
Then, we had our free afternoon in Cardiff, the capital of Wales. This is
the flag of Wales, I really love it.
