What to plan?

A CLIL lesson should be planned in detail in order to include all key elements that make a CLIL lesson. These are:

  • The 4Cs (content, cognition, communication, culture)
  • Prior knowledge
  • Learning objectives & Scaffolding
  • Activities with HOTS & LOTS and cognitive levels & age in mind
  • Materials & resources
  • Evaluation

The elements just mentioned should be relatively all included in the steps of your lesson.

 

THE MAIN STEPS OF A CLIL LESSON ARE:

1. Welcome routine

2. Introduction to the lesson

3. Presentation of New Content

4. Working session

5. Evaluation

6. Wrap up routine

 

 

The lesson plan provided with "The CLIL Approach - handbook" assists you in thinking of all the elements before the lesson. So you can have a detailed plan helping you to run the lesson as smoothly as possible. It is fully comprehensive and allows, as a standard, the inclusion of every important and necessary aspect for you to plan into your CLIL lesson. For each step of your lesson, the template includes sections to note thinking skills, R&W, speaking, listening, activities, games, evaluation as well as warm up and wrap up activities.

The 3rd page of the lesson plan is a customizable activity page that you can copy, personalize and use for as many activities you will need to design for your lesson.

The lesson plan template is provided in the handbook I wrote "The CLIL Approach", but if you'd like to receive a copy directly to your email then scroll up to the top of the CLIL section and tell me where to send it by signing up to my newsletter.
