1. PREFACE

CLIL is used as an integrative approach in which language and content are the
bases for teaching. Additional language is used in the teaching and learning process to
develop links between content and language (Coyle, Hood, & Marsh, 2010). The vision
of language in CLIL centers on the interaction in the context between a 4Cs
Framework: content (subject matter), communication (language learning and use),
cognition (learning and thinking process), and culture (developing intercultural
understanding and global citizenship).
Additionally, CLIL bases the learning process on a language triptych. This
language triptych is composed of three concepts that help learners to acquire the
language: Language of learning (the key vocabulary and phrases needed to access
new knowledge), language for learning (the vocabulary needed to interact during the
class development) and language through learning (the new knowledge of the
language learned through the lessons) (Coyle, Hood, & Marsh, 2010, pp. 61-63). See
figure below.

Figure 1. Adaptation of the language triptych and the 4Cs framework (Coyle, Hood, & Marsh, 2010)

As Pokrivčáková et al. (2015) state CLIL seems to be difficult to ignore in


today’s society. Bilingual education has popularized its use on bilingual and
international schools which focused their syllabus in a task based learning approach,
teaching science, math and geography subjects through the designing of CLIL lesson

plans (Tardieu & Dolitsky, 2012) by giving the Instructions in the target language from
kindergarten starting during elementary school in Countries like Canada, Holland and
the United States –French as the target language- (Barton & Neville-Barton, 2003;
Swain & Lapkin, 1982; Tardieu & Dolitsky, 2012). Consequently CLIL can be
considered to be specifically implemented for the educational and methodological
principles in bilingual schools promoting an integration on the subject and a language
learning understanding through the use of the target language (Tardieu & Dolitsky,
2012).

In spite of all this positive feedback and results that some schools have
achieved using CLIL some problems can be appreciate by teachers. For instance when
applying it to a pilot-bilingual program, in schools’ syllabus or cross-curricular content
that are still in development and do not count with relevant lesson plans that follow the
pace of a certain school or learners context (Divljan; 2012, p.5). Owing these factors,
teachers have to deal with issues such as: Not having a national CLIL based program
in each subject, lack of materials to adapt –or too much material with no relevant
content to adapt-, materials which are well-adapt to CLIL approach in History, science
and math yet is not relevant to learners’ interest, context, culture and even cognition
factors; missing the cultural impact necessary for creating an engaging interaction
among learners. (Ball, 2012; Byram, 1997; Divljan, 2012).

According to the problem mentioned above, some authors (Divljan, 2012;


Mehisto, Marsh & Frigols, 2008; Pokrivčáková et al., 2015) proposed different
combinations and methods to use the CLIL from low second language levels to
advance ones by synthetizing it with other communicative approaches as PPP –
Presentation, practice and production, Task-based teaching and learning, Content-
based learning and so forth (Harmer, 1998; Richards, 2006; Rogers, 2001). Therefore,
regarding the subject, context, students’ level and content CLIL could be applied to a
variety of approaches that fit the intended program, hence based on Mehisto (2012)
and Tardieu, Claire & Doltisky, Marlene (2012) Task based learning could be an
approach that relates more to the content and culture matters in bilingual school, that
together with CLIL can create academic content of non-linguistic subjects through a
target language that includes the materials to be used, a communicative outcome and
relevant cultural factors.

Assignment - CLIL

Task based approach facilitates that material creation because as Uehara (2016)
explains: While the traditional teaching methods involves instructor-based models
where there may be little student-teacher or student-to-student interaction, task-
based language teaching (TBLT) is a language teaching approach which requires
learners to do meaningful tasks by using language in an authentic environment
(Ellis, 1998). The participants are encouraged to collaborate in English, and to
complete a pre-challenge and post-challenge worksheet by responding to a survey
in English on learner’s perceptions of a certain activity.

With this in mind this proposal is adjusted to create a unit that relates to the
task-based language/teaching approach applying the CLIL methodology in order to
create materials which are relevant to the culture, convenient in content, interesting to
students and teachers cognition and uncovered communication, motivating students to
use the target language as a communication tool instead of as the learning object.
Following and integrated language learning program that as Mehisto, Marsh and
Frigols (2008) stated will meet five important cores that CLIL and language learning
follows: multiple focus, safe and enriching learning environment, authenticity, active
learning and scaffolding (p.29).

2. INTRODUCTION

Throughout the years English teaching has become a topic which is in constant
debate when it comes about its methodologies and approaches in order to create an
effective language environment for its adequate acquisition. In 2004, the Colombian
Ministry of Education (MEN) created the PNB –National Bilingual Program-, which main
objective is to have citizens able to communicate in English, so that they can introduce
the country in universal communication processes, in global economy and cultural
openness, with standards internationally comparable (Ministerio de Educación
Nacional, 2006a, p. 6). This objective seeks to help the country move into a process of
globalization and take part in the dynamics of international communicative standards.
Among other objectives, the NBP wants: (a) students to reach B1 level of proficiency
when concluding school studies and (b) prepare primary, high school and university
teachers to be capable of interacting in a bilingual environment (Rodríguez, 2011).
In 2006, MEN presented “Estándares Básicos de Competencias en Lenguas
Extranjeras: Inglés”, a national policy based on the Common European Framework of
Reference (CEFR). As Rodríguez (2011) stated, these standards established the
common foundations to guide the design of educational standards, teaching
methodologies, and instructional materials to teach English as a foreign language.
Concretely, these standards describe the specific language levels that every child has
as a right during the academic process.
Based on bilingualism and bilingual education, MEN has one specific objective:
to prepare integrally future citizens for them to acquire basic knowledge and language
domain of the foreign language English. In order to achieve this objective, MEN has
taken into consideration two approaches which guide the teaching and learning
process in the school. On the one hand, CLIL is used as an integrative approach in
which language and content are the bases for teaching. On the other hand, a holistic
approach is implemented in order to reach a full development of the person.
In this Proposal A Task-based unit will be designed regarding the PNB
objectives alongside with MEN language approaches. TBL is the one that provides
opportunities to experience spoken, reading, listening, and written language through
meaningful class assignments that involve learners in practical and functional use of
the second language (Nunan, 1989); integrating the skills based on daily life activates
treating the language from an holistic perspective through the assistance of CLIL

compounding not only all the language main skills but regarding on culture, cultural and
cognitive factors.

2.1 CONTEXTUALIZATION.

2.1.1 LOCATION:

The proposal is designed to fit a cross-curricular content institution which


present a pilot bilingual program. In which English and literature are taught based on
the communicative TBL approach. Science, history and math are taught through CLIL
methodology sometimes combined with PPP and TBL –depending on the course-.
The name of the institution is LICEO CAMBRIGDE – Colombian private school
located in Cota-. This school was chosen based on the experience I had there one year
ago; developing lesson planners and syllabus from first graders to fourth graders. The
school lacked of a PEI regarding bilingual education, but its bilingual coordinator had
well-respected experience developing this projects, She had a wide knowledge of the
program and methodologies to be applied in each grade.
Based on that experience this proposal was designed to update the lesson
plans of second graders and to fit them into the school’s transversal project by creating
TBL units integrating CLIL for daily use language alongside festivals. So that the
proposal not only will incorporate TBL and CLIL to meet the holistic factors asked by
MEN but will regard the transversal project carried inside the school.

2.1.2 STUDENTS GROUP DESCRIPTION:


The focused population will be second graders since is the grade were CLIL
science assignments start being taught. Students’ age average varies from 6 to 8 years
old. Their mother tongue is Spanish. The school counts with only one group of second
graders of 21 students.
Regarding the students context some learning needs were conceived: some
behavioral problems when not understanding the English instruction, lack of an optimal
classroom environment –English lab, video bean, and smart room- causing a lack of
good materials use, motivation and attention.
On the other hand another further consideration is not only the size of the class
-which is quite big- but whether or not student insist I suing their L1. One of the most

8
Assignment - CLIL

common problems in English classrooms in the primary cycle is the use of native
language more than the English target language. Harmer (1998) explains that they
want to communicate an important idea and their only resource for communicating this
is using their native language. Thus, there is a struggle between the native language
and English language; students feel kind of uncomfortable to English language (the
target language) and prefer the use of their native language although the context is
asking for that target language (bilingual context).

Bearing this considerations in mind the timing to apply this unit is up to four
lessons based on math’s day and science’s day –these were selected due to the
schools calendar and syllabus adaptation-. Each unit’s lesson will be carried out each
week to sensitize students on the school integrated and holistic bilingual program, so
that they may be able to visualize English as a communicative language and not as
another subject.

3. INSTRUCTION DESIGN: PROPOSAL

Based on the theory presented on the preface this unit will use the 4 C’s
principals in each lesson design (Coyle, Hood, & Marsh, 2010).As well as the right
combination and application of TBL activities: pre task- stage; introduction of the topic
and instructional phase, During task-stage; analysis, developing and application of the
task, and finally the post-task; analyzing the outcomes and encouraging learners and
teachers to evaluation and produce on it (Ellis, 1998; Nunan, 2004; Richards & Rogers,
1986).

3.1 Learning Outcomes.


This unit proposal will empower students to:
 Articulate the use of their L2 to the CLIL subject in a more natural way.
 Bring motivation and interaction together
 Meet and integration of their L2 skills
 Acquire relevant vocabulary about a certain subject
 enrich their oral fluency in L2

Assignment - CLIL

3.2 Competencies
This unit will be based on CLIL and TBL integrated skills competences
which provide meaningful task integrating different reading, writing, listening,
and speaking exercises that could enhance students’ communicative
competences and interaction. (Ellis, 1998).

TBL promotes integration of the major skills by completing daily-life


activities and phrases having a positive impact in the communicative
competence to enrich student’s language use on an authentic learning
environment. (Richards & Rogers, 1986). So that the proposals expects to fulfill
the competences of Oral communication –speaking and listening-, group
interaction, and CLIL’s competence on language for/through/of learning.

3.3 Contents
This unit proposal will be separated into 4 topics, 2 of them are
consecutive regarding math and the other 2 will be consecutive regarding
science. Each class will be given weekly. Based on the schools bilingual
curriculum of math and science each topic was selected and continued. The
contents will be the next ones:

Math task on CLIL lesson Science task on CLIL lesson


Topics: Colors and shapes Topics: Weather (related to the
Vocabulary: colors festival of kites in August)
Shapes, numbers from 1 to 6, bingo Vocabulary: Weather vocabulary,

5. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

This proposal objective is based on creating different task that manages to meet
the requirements ask by the school’s syllables and the CLIL methodology use in this
population. Bearing in mind the theory discussed in the preface and instruction it is
relevant to say that this kind of activities that involve basic vocabulary not only focused
on the content but as well on the instruction, culture and communicative phase help
students to be able to transmit short sentences to their partners, giving them a small
little self-confident feeling, a recommendation for this point will be to keep in mind that
giving the instructions and adapt the material to meet this expectation may be hard at
the beginning but as the lessons and tasks are applied student can get used to this
commands and mode of interaction in another language (Richards, 1990).

Furthermore, these type activities that involves basic commands are really good for
their memory and for creating the habit to talk in English. However some students may
be shy at the beginning, but also with time’s help they would get used to that English
language environment intended in CLIL.

Last but not least, it is always a must for teachers to adapt each unit materials, times
and sequences based on their students’ context and cultural mattes, so that motivation
and interaction would cause a positive response in the group increasing their
vocabulary, learning a new topic with the help of their partners, sharing their ideas in
other language to the others students.
