CLIL in Citizenship Aims
Content
• Recycling Language
• Lexis related to materials and household items
• Skills – speaking and writing
Preparation Prepare one copy of the worksheet per pupil. Alternatively, in the spirit of recycling, copy( or project) the worksheet on the board and get pupils to copy it in their notebooks or on the back of a used sheet of paper.
Procedure
• Ask pupils what they know about recycling. Brainstorm on the board types of materials that can be recycled. Pupils may need help with this vocabulary( E. g. paper, plastic, metal, glass).
• Give out the worksheet to pupils and ask them to write as many things as they can think of made of these materials( e. g. bottles, magazines, boxes etc).“ Other” could include clothes or vegetable waste( biodegradable) depending on the facilities in your area. This can be done with pupils working individually, in pairs or in groups.
• Collect their ideas on the board and make sure that all pupils have a good list of recyclable items on their worksheets.
• Tell pupils to talk together in groups about how to recycle these things and what problems they will have. Monitor and help with vocabulary and ideas.
• Pupils take their lists home and for one week keep count of how much they( or their families) recycle. You might want to give pupils stickers to put on the sheet every time they recycle something. Tell pupils to bring their worksheets back next week.
• Next week see which pupil recycled the most. You might like to give the winner a green prize, for example a small bag made from recycled materials.
Extension Pupils can go on to write about their experience of recycling – what, when and how
