The designed CLIL unit
is about the Geography of Spain that would be taught in the first year of
Secondary as part of the subject of Geography. This unit would be the first one
of the academic year.
The aims of this Unit
will be:
- - To recognise the main mountain systems in the Iberian
Peninsula.
- - To identify the Spanish coasts and islands.
- - To identify the three groups of estuaries.
- - To identify the five types of climate in Spain.
- - To use I.T. to get information about the physical
geography of Spain.
We will study the mountain
systems in Spain, Spanish coasts and islands, Spanish rivers and the Climate in
Spain.
As the students are
in the first Academic year of Secondary, we will use visual resources as videos,
photos and so on. Checking out the
previous knowledge of the students about the topic in order to make them feel
more confident and ready to achieve more about it.
We will learn and understand new vocabulary with the aim of
understanding oral-visual-written pieces of information.
At the same time, we will discover with our students the main mountain
systems, coasts, islands and the five sorts of climate in Spain.
This unit will take seven sessions of 50 minutes each one and
all of them divided into four main parts:
-
Presentation (12’).
-
Practice (12’).
-
Production (12’).
-
Conclusion (12’).
Students will need
their subject notebooks, the usage of up-to-date technology through computers
or tablets and working on the internet and different apps
We will start playing a
short video by which students will have a general idea about the country where
they live. It is a way that makes students feel more confident to face a new
unit, someone always has an idea about a topic at least.
The notes and explanations can be reinforced with
resources like flashcards that also will help the kids to settle their
knowledge of the contents and the control of L2

Global projection about the geography of Spain with some other recent historical note rather: in order to bring the matter of geography to a social and cultural context most updated
The geography of our country shows how different it is and how this diversity does not just affect the geography indeed. I would end up leaving the issue about what to think about it: “Food for thought”.
