My CLIL Science Corner

  HAPPY SATURDAY!! Teachers,  Today I would like to share with you the session 6 of the ELECTRICITY unit I have been sharing during these last weeks. It is going to be FREE until Monday 12th, so hurry up to download this material. Then, it will be availabe in my TpT Store . This unit is a Jigsaw activity, a cooperative Learning technique. This session includes: * Lesson plan of the unit * Adapted information about Renewable and Non Renewable energies * Worksheet to track experts' information in pairs * Worksheet track all the experts' information I hope you like this cooperative learning technique and that your students have fun doing it.

  Good evening! How are you? I hope you are making the most of your Easter break.  In previous posts, I shared two of the sessions of the Electricity unit I implemented in my Science CLIL classes during the the 2nd term. Now it's time to share session 5: "Introduction to Renewable and Non renewable Energies".  It includes: 1) Lesson plan of the session 2) Link to the video "ELECTRICITY: ITS SOURCES. RENEWABLE AND NON RENEWABLE ENERGIES" BY SCIENCE FOR KIDS 3) A set of question to ask after watching the video (oral comprehension) 4) Worksheet to complete a mind map with the information from the video Click on the image to DOWNLOAD this material for FREE.  I will be very glad if you leave me a comment sharing how it has worked in your class or suggesting improvements.
