Integrating Primary Languages Into the Curriculum by Joanne Mimnagh,Sarah Lister Pdf

The prospect of Modern Languages becoming a compulsory part of the Primary Curriculum in 2011 represents both an exciting opportunity and a huge challenge to all trainee and practising teachers. Integrating MFL into the Primary Curriculum: A Practical Guide provides sensible advice, combined with tried and tested methods grounded in theory. The chapters combine to provide a clear picture of primary languages and the issue of progression. Each stage of implementation from the beginnings to ensuring progression and the transition to secondary school are covered by each chapter, providing real case studies and practical means of moving policy forward in school. The authors move away from simplistic ideas of introducing nouns using simple activities to show how primary languages may look in real terms in a primary classroom and how language can be integrated into everyday classroom work, providing age appropriate language for real purpose. Primary language learning can be difficult to initiate without clear direction, direction that is embedded in good theory and realistic experience. As experienced primary language teachers the authors have a clear sense of what schools need, and more importantly know how to provide good examples of what should be taught in the primary language curriculum. This book will show schools how to get started in MFL, how they can sustain and maintain their provision and how they can take primary languages forward. This indispensable book: Applies a coherent programme of CLIL (content language integrated learning) to Primary school contexts Integrates MFL into core and foundation curriculum subjects Illustrated throughout with case studies and practical examples of best practice Offers practical advice on planning for progression throughout Focuses on phonics and key transferable literacy skills Addresses plurilingualism and EAL Explores practical applications of ICT Looks beyond Primary Curriculum and gives practical advice and points of action for schools in achieving successful transition to KS3

Integrating Language and Content by Maria Dantas-Whitney Pdf

The definition of English language classroom is changing. When students have the opportunity to learn content and language at the same time, disciplinary boundaries overlap. Teachers are rethinking how they design courses, plan lessons, assess students, and collaborate with colleagues to support student learning and facilitate their own professional growth. In this volume, contributors describe practical examples of integrating language and content in classrooms in Italy, the Netherlands, Yemen, Turkey, Taiwan, Russia, the United States, and South Africa. Teachers help students achieve their goals--learning English for specific purposes such as advertising, fashion design, and philosophy; teaching adult learners by integrating English skills with health literacy, conflict resolution, and social justice; serving emerging bilingual students in learning grade-level academic material or valuable job skills. The book is divided into four sections that help readers navigate the sometimes chaotic intersection of language and content: Why Do Teachers Design Courses to Integrate Language and Content?; How Do Teachers Integrate Language and Content?; How Do Teachers Evaluate Language and Content Learning?; and How Do Teachers Collaborate to Integrate Language and Content?

Modern Languages in the Primary School by Philip Hood,Kristina Tobutt Pdf

How can foreign language learning be developed in primary schools? In what ways can it be integrated into the primary classroom? Modern Languages in the Primary School tackles these questions, challenging current perceptions of primary modern languages, arguing that modern languages should be fully integrated into the primary curriculum, and looking at ways in which this can be achieved. The authors examine ways in which language-learning can be made a rich experience for all. They offer ideas on how to start language programmes in schools, or enhance those already in place. The book: - Features a 3-stage practical approach to teaching languages with different age groups in primary schools - Develops a coherent view of language learning and teaching - Refers to the KS2 Framework elements of oracy, literacy, intercultural understanding, knowledge about language and language learning strategies - Contains a chapter which offers a theoretical introduction to content and language integrated learning (CLIL) - Refers to the QTS Standards and offers a short guide to internet-based and multimedia resources This book is for Primary ITE students and experienced teachers who are taking on the Modern Language coordinator role or teaching modern languages in primary schools for the first time. Philip Hood is Course Director of the National SCITT Primary PGCE and Lecturer in Modern Languages Education at the University of Nottingham. Kristina Tobutt is a Primary teacher and Associate Consultant for Nottinghamshire LA.

Cross-Curricular Approaches to Language Education by Eleni Agathopoulou,Angeliki Psaltou-Joycey,Marina Mattheoudakis Pdf

Current applied linguistic research generally supports the adoption of interdisciplinary approaches in education with the objective of enhancing learners’ progress and teachers’ practices. In this spirit, this edited volume explores the issue of cross-curricular learning and teaching from a wider perspective. The twenty-three papers collected here are categorised in four thematic units, all of which, however, share a common feature: they focus on interdisciplinary learning and promote the integration of knowledge and skills from various subject areas. As such, all the papers brought together in this volume, thus, emphasise the interconnectedness of knowledge and ideas in primary, secondary and tertiary education. The theme of Cross-Curricular Teaching and Learning is related in this volume to Intercultural Education, to Content and Language Integrated Learning, and to Information and Communication Technology (ICT). The book will be of interest to scholars who are interested in relevant research-based data and results, and to educators who wish to update their knowledge about cross-curricular teaching and improve their language teaching practices.

Teaching Content and Language in the Multilingual Classroom by Svenja Hammer,Kara Mitchell Viesca,Nancy L. Commins Pdf

This book brings together research from six different countries across three continents where teacher educators and policy makers are addressing the under-preparation of content teachers to work effectively with multilingual learners. By highlighting this relatively young field of research at an international level, the book advances the research-based knowledge of the field and promotes international research relationships and partnerships to better support the education of multilingual learners and their teachers. The chapters represent high-quality empirical qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods studies about pre-service and in-service teachers. Comprising four sections, each represents a critical aspect of the equitable teaching of multilingual learners. All the research was conducted in countries that belong to OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) and the PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) enabling the reader to compare contexts and outcomes. This book will be of particular interest to academics, researchers, and post-graduate students in the fields of language education, teacher education, and education for multilingual learners. It will be of great value to anyone concerned with equity and social justice for multilingual learners whose languages, cultural practices, and resources are often overlooked and/or marginalized in the schools they attend.

Integrating Assessment into Early Language Learning and Teaching by Danijela Prošić-Santovac,Shelagh Rixon Pdf

The volume unites research and practice on integrating language learning, teaching and assessment at preschool and early school age. It includes chapters written by experts in the field who have studied some of the very youngest (pre-primary) children through to those up to the age of 12, in a variety of private and state contexts across Europe. The collection makes a much-needed contribution to the subject of appropriate assessment for children with the focus of many chapters being classroom-based assessment, particularly formative assessment, or the case for developing assessment skills in relation to even the youngest children. As a whole, the book provides useful case study insights for policymakers, teacher educators, researchers and postgraduate students with interest in or responsibility for how children are assessed in their language learning. It also provides practical ideas for practitioners who wish to implement greater integration of assessment and learning in their own contexts.
