ELEVENTH SESSION: Speaking English in the CLIL classroom

Session objective:
Teachers will reflect about the importance of promoting speaking activities in the CLIL classroom, and how to go about it.

When talking about a CLIL classroom some very important aspects have to be taken into account;often times,  it's through speaking tasks that you, as teacher, can be coherent with some of the principles of CLIL. Have a look at this video and think about how CLIL oriented your practices are.

ACTIVITIES
In this session teachers had the opportunity to consider why and how to improve the STT ( Student's Talking Time) in the classroom, and specially how to do that in L2.
Teachers had to do three speaking tasks and think about how to use them in their lessons.
Teachers thought about the type of tasks they could plan to help their students succeed in their final outcome.
