What elements did you identify in the communication section? Can you describe them?
In the communication section we have The use of Language 1, that could be used in the classroom as
a bilingual strategy that helps learners communicate fluently.
It is an approach well-known as a code switching in CLIL approach.
Content: The content being taught is related to history and social studies, specifically the monarchy
and the British royal family. The vocabulary presented is also related to monarchy and marriage.
Language: The language being used to teach the content is English, with a focus on sentence structure
and grammar in the simple past tense.
Integration: The lesson integrates both content and language instruction, with students learning both
about the monarchy and how to use the simple past tense in English.
Communication: The lesson plan includes a communication activity in which students order
scrambled sentences, which requires them to use their understanding of both the content and the
language being taught.
What other activities would you have done in the language through the learning section?
Extension activities could be created using technology and websites due to it develops learners’
autonomy and higher-order of thinking skills.
Group discussion: Divide the class into small groups and ask them to discuss the advantages and
disadvantages of having a monarchy in modern times. This activity would help students practice
their speaking and listening skills, as well as their ability to express opinions and arguments in
English.
Role-playing: Divide the class into pairs and ask them to role-play a conversation between a king
and queen, using the vocabulary and sentence structures presented in the lesson plan. This activity
would help students practice their speaking skills and reinforce their understanding of the sentence
structures in context.
Vocabulary games: Play vocabulary games such as "Taboo" or "Charades" to help students practice
and reinforce their understanding of the vocabulary presented in the lesson plan. These games would
be a fun and engaging way to help students learn the new vocabulary words.

Languages (CEFR). As children move through the levels in this section, the activities will start to get
more difficult.
Activities can be: singing, pictograms, use of the game platforms, interviews, and role play
