communicative competence of pupils, intercultural competence and culture of
international communication. For modern pupils, knowledge of a foreign language is
particularly important, the opportunity to use it to obtain various information, including
chemical, from different sources: scientific literature, media and especially Internet
resources, as pupils in recent years, are widely used by them. By the 8th grade their
language training is sufficient to obtain chemical knowledge in a foreign language.
English was chosen as a foreign language for bilingual chemistry training. This is due,
first, to its increasing role in society, especially in the computer sphere, which is of
great interest to the modern pupil. Secondly, English is widely studied at school.
Without chemical language it is impossible to study the basics of chemistry. It is
widely and actively used at all stages of the subject and is an important indicator of the
chemical knowledge of students. With the help of chemical language chemical
concepts are transmitted and assimilated, chemical process schemes are recorded. In
the process of learning, chemical language is both a subject and a means of learning.
However, before you turn a language into a learning tool, you need to master it. For the
formation of the chemical language in the conditions of bilingual education, it is
advisable to use specific methodological techniques: consecutive translation, code
switching, visual support, bilingual contextual replacement, bridge-hint, bilingual
addition, bilingual comparison and disclosure of the etymology. These methods are
based on chemical material and allow to carry out interdisciplinary connections with
biology, geography, ecology and other subjects.
An universal methodical technique that can be used in any chemistry lesson in
the process of bilingual education is consecutive translation, which involves the
translation of independent sentences or semantic parts of the sentence immediately
after the speaker during special pauses. As a translator, in the first chemistry lessons or
in grades with “weak” language training, is a teacher, later it is possible to involve the
pupils themselves. Consecutive interpretation is carried out both from a foreign
language to the native language and vice versa.
Methodical technique "consecutive interpretation" can be used from the very
first lesson of chemistry. So, the topic of the lesson can be given simultaneously in the
native and foreign languages. For example: "pure substance and mixture". Thus,
pupils’ vocabulary of foreign words in chemistry are gradually formed and expanded.
At the same time a formation of knowledge of chemical elements names and
ability to pronounce them are taken place, at once in two language systems: native and
foreign languages. While translation from your native language to a foreign language,
you should pay attention to the correct pronunciation of words, as the word includes
not only semantic and grammatical sides, but also phonetic.
«Changing over of the language code». Methodical technique «changing over of
the language code» involves the use in one text units that belong to different language
systems, that is, in the text in one language it is inputted words or phrases in another
language: on the chemistry lessons in the primary school in the grades with weak
language preparation, as well as in the 8th grade, when chemical language is the
subject of study, we recommend as the primary language in the implementation of this
methodological “technique” to use their native language.
Changing over of the language code can be used to implement any method
(story, explanation, conversation, narration, demonstration, illustration, exercises,
didactic game, etc.) at any of its stages.
It is advisable to use changing over of the language code in the study of
terminology. The definition of the term, the disclosure of its meaning is given in the
native language, and the term - in a foreign language. For example,
Decomposition reaction - this is such a reaction, as a result of which two or
more new substances are formed from one complex substance.
