 Language

We must talk in World English and not England English (like a native speaker):it’s ENGLISH LINGUA FRANCA (ELF).

When we talk we use SPEAKING LANGUAGE (BICS Basic Interpersonal Communication Skills )and not WRITING LANGUAGE ( CALP Cognitive Academic Language Proficiency) : a mistake in writing language is not a mistake in speaking language.

 Examples ELF and BICS:

• non use of third person ‘s’

• interchangeability of ‘who’ and ‘which’

• omision and insertion of definite articles

• use of all purpose question tag : no? Or isn’t it ?

• Increasing redundancy with prepositions ? : can we discuss about ?

• Reliance on verbs of high frequency ? : do , have , make , put , take .

• Pluralisation of nouns : advices, informations

• ‘that’ clauses instead of infinitive constructions : I want that we go home now.

• Increasing explicitness: black colour.

 NB : in our course with pupils we can use 2 languages to work ; for example we can work on a text in a mother tongue with questions in English.

Different types of tasks

Jim Cummins has devised a model which helps categories tasks in both the Bilingual and Language classroom along a spectrum of difficulty.

 In bilingual the majority of tasks should be cognitively demanding and context embedded © .Whit the context reduced pupil needs knowledge.

 Reading strategies

 Chunks and collocations

There are two or more words that often go together. There are two kinds of chunks or collocations :

general or specific to a topic .

 Examples of “general chunks”:

• in the early nineteen century

• the fast train / a quick shower

• to argue among themselves

• do your homework / make a mistake

 Different kinds of ways of learning

• Linguistic/verbal / : an essay writing or doing word puzzles.

• Visual : drawing pictures or responding to pictures.

• Spatial : reading maps or playing chess.

• Manipulative : making models .

• Logical- Mathematical : making timetables or calculating .

• Musical : playing an instrument or composing music.

• Interpersonal : helping others learn or showing and telling.

• Intrapersonal/Metacognitive : predicting what you will do well/badly or reviewing and evaluating.

• Kinesthetic : sports or moving round classroom.

• Experimental : finding out activities or workings things out.

 Types of thinking

• comparing : the Normans were more killed than English.

• Chronological order : after destroying the monasteries, Wolsey hanged the abbots.

• Cause and effect : the Reformation caused unrest across England.

• Classifying : the crocodile belongs to the reptile groups.

• Evaluating : despite being a woman , Elizabeth 1 was a very strong monarch.

• Generalizing : most people live in large cities.

• Describing : rainforest are located in Africa, South America and South East Asia.

Synthesis of advice in bilingual teaching.

1. Start from the students (Diagnosing where my kits are) . What don’t you know about..? (Do not ask what they know) OR What would happen if…?Take a slow thinking quiet time… Collect the answers and write them on the blackboard in English

2. Provide three times as many visuals (Internet maps, charts, diagrams…)

3. Provide more variety of task type

4. Work in a greater variety of pace (speed).

5. Offer many more activities which require cognition and creativity instead of ‘learning’

6. Don’t be afraid of using their mother tongue during the lesson.

 7. Textbooks and visuals : when you are using a textbook, students are going to look at the pictures first. What is the purpose of the pictures? They have to teach something else besides the text. Look carefully at your pictures in the textbook and choose others on the Internet.

A. Strands of historical development

• English binary system:

• Class (british position ): 7% of pupils study in a private school (30 000 euros a year registration fee in a private school)

• Ability : for at 11 pupils pass an exam to go to Grammar School (there is only one grammar school in Cheltenham). If they don’t go in a grammar school they can go in a comprehensive school where all the children are welcome. Some of these Comprehensive Schools are trying to become Specialist Schools specialised in some subject because in that way they get better marks.

• School is compulsory between 5 and 16.

• The language is another problem : french is the second language they learn but they don’t get good marks at it.

• The English school system is not homogeneous.

• There is a test at every stage.

B. What are the requirements of the 21^st Century?

• Numbers of employment changes

• Decentralization of the workforce, we need different kind of specialists

• Parents/carers having to work and for longer (latchkey children : children who live in autonomy because parents work a lot )

• Higher cost of living/housing

• Consumer based materialistic society

• Increased global travel

• The importance of the e-learning

• Personalized learning centers
