How does CLIL work?
Knowledge of the language becomes the means of learning
content
Language is integrated into the broad curriculum.
CLIL is based on language acquisition rather than learning.
Learning is improved through increased motivation.
Language is seen in real-life situations in which students can
acquire the language. This is natural language development.
CLIL is long-term learning. Students become academically
proficient in English after 5-7 years in a good bilingual
program.
Fluency is more important than accuracy. Learners develop
fluency by using English to communicate for a variety of
purposes.
Reading is the essential skill.

Research Foundations
It takes 5-7 years for students in a quality bilingual
program to become academically proficient in English.
Language acquisition is cyclical, not a linear process.
Learners acquire best when they create, discover and
construct their own meanings.
Language is a means, not an end, and when learners
are interested in a topic, they will be motivated to
acquire language to communicate.
Fluency precedes accuracy and errors are a natural part
of language learning.
Learners develop fluency in English by using English
to communicate for a variety of purposes.
Reading is essential for developing academic English
skills.

The CLIL curriculum
All or some subjects are taught through a foreign
or second language
The curriculum is based on the 4 Cs - CONTENT,
COMMUNICATION, COGNITION and
CULTURE
More content is taught as language competence
increases
There is no language syllabus
CLIL starts in elementary school
7/7/2015

CLIL lessons
Contain the 4 Cs
Are not language lessons or subject lessons
delivered in a foreign language
The subject matter determines the language
needed to learn. Language is not graded.
Are often based on reading or listening texts
Are similar to ‘integrated skills’ lessons,
incorprtae aspects of the lexical approach
and are humanistic and communicative.

A CLIL lesson framework
There is no such thing as a ‘CLIL lesson’, but
lessons often follow a pattern:
Processing the text
Organisation of knowledge
Language identification
Tasks for learners

Jeans are trousers traditionally made from
denim, but may also be made from a variety of fabrics
including cotton and corduroy. Originally work clothes,
they became popular among teenagers starting in the
1950s. Historic brands include Levi's and Wrangler. Today
Jeans are a very popular form of casual dress around the
world and come in many styles and colors. The earliest
known pre-cursor for jeans is the Indian export of a thick
cotton cloth, in the 16th century, known as dungaree. Dyed
in indigo, it was sold near the Dongarii Fort near Mumbai.
Jeans were first created in Genoa. The first denim came
from Nîmes, France.

A student generated text
Levi's® is a brand of riveted denim jeans manufactured by
Levi Strauss & Co. It is thought that Levi Strauss sold his
first jeans to gold miners during the California Gold Rush.
Modern jeans began to appear in the 1920s. By the 1990s,
the brand was facing competition from other brands and
cheaper products from places like China, Hong Kong, and
Vietnam.
In 2000, the "Launderette" advertisement for Levi's 501s
was named the 6th best television commercial ever. The
advertisement featured the song I Heard It Through the
Grapevine by Marvin Gaye.
The new RedWire DLX Jeans will have iPod remote control
fitted in its pockets, and comes complete with attached
headphones. A pair will cost $200.
