To reinforce our CLIL knowledge and with the principal objective of providing a guideline, the teacher reviewed the classic CLIL activity sequence during our second session. Even if it is nothing new for us it's always convenient to address key concepts.
The learning sequence in ClIL activities consist on 6 stages, that we must relate to Bloom's Taxonomy when designing our own activities, which are:
The learning sequence in ClIL activities consist on 6 stages, that we must relate to Bloom's Taxonomy when designing our own activities, which are:
1) Activation: Remember and retrieve useful knowledge (student's prior conceptions).
2) Understanding: Submit information in L2 helping the comprehension process.
3) Vocabulary: Work the basic (BICS) and specific (CALPS) vocabulary.
4) Oral production: Speak in L2 addressing different learning content.
5) Written production: Write in L2 addressing different learning content.
6) Assessment: Reflect on the learning process and its results.
6) Assessment: Reflect on the learning process and its results.
As we already know, it could be more than a task for every stage. Nevertheless the sequence must not vary. We also could segment the content we are going to handle in order to accomplish a learning process more dynamic and intuitive for our students and that is precisely what we are going to do with our sound qualities project.
We have 4 different qualities that require an specific understanding of their characteristics so, it is pretty obvious that we will need to make a segmentation of content. This will require more work on our side but we are willing to confront it with drive and positivity.
Finally, to end this post, it is necessary to clarify that even though we are going to segment the learning sequence, it will not cover the final assessment. This is merely because, in order to evaluate our students, it is needed for us to watch them distinguish between the 4 sound qualities.
