CLIL DU War of the Words


CLIL DU War of the Words

 

DU Title: War of the Words (Middle and Modern Ages)

Course: 2nd year of "ESO" 

History 

 

a CLIL Didactic Unit by Angélica García-Manso on historiographic lexicon for the second year of ESO (Middle and Modern Ages)

 (CPR on line, sede de Badajoz, 2018-2019)

 

The War of the Words is a Didactic Unit that explores the usual idea of the medieval world as a time of conflicts, wars, knights and crusades; but, from a CLIL perspective, our aim is to show students a battle between words: words between themselves and words in two languages.

 

From a cognitive perspective, through our DU we seek to establish through the different activities that propose a doctrinal precision on the use of medieval concepts (chronology, political typology, socioeconomic relations and artistic movements), while promoting, as linguistic competence, both the lexical precision and the oral and written exposition of temporal concepts as well as from the same constructions (since there are synthetic denominations and others that resort to syntagmas to refer to the same period).

It is not a question of the DU of a subject, but of a Project-based learning for the semesters in which the History part is taught in the subject of the 2nd year of "ESO".

 

CLIL sessions are organized as the subject matter progresses. Thus, to new contents, new lexicon with which to complete the classroom mural. At an average of three concepts per week (according to the corresponding chronological, political, socioeconomic and artistic guidelines), at the end of the syllabus the student would have a command of approximately fifty technical expressions of enormous cultural and conceptual value, as well as lexical precisions on the notions of time, history and the description of works of art. The remaining activities may be interleaved or culminate in each of the themes.

 

The basic activity is that of a classroom mural that accompanies the work in class at all times. It is also a scaffolding resource as the student, who carries out the timeline, successively discovers the new concepts and their correspondence in the timelines of the mural.

Other individual activities refer to a "quiz" and the elaboration of a medieval calendar (using OER links), as well as other ICT tools, such as glossaries of medieval terms and, for students interested in the world of comics, a publication on the subject (not only for an interested student, but, in the present case, with a fluent command of written English and with the support of the teacher).

Finally, as a complementary work, one can resort to films with an ironic treatment of the medieval world or to videos from which to extract the concepts.

The most revealing self-sufficiency exercises in learning are a text in which to fill in gasps and a Self-Assessment chart, in which the knowledge on which one has worked is summarised.

 

Here I present you my DU and the activities.
