KEEPING HEALTHY!

Hello everybody, I hope you like my work:

My AICLE unit called “Keeping healthy” is elaborated for students in the fifth year of Primary.

       The learning outcomes are:

-To know that a balanced diet, good sleep, and regular exercise help to keep our bodies healthy

        And the subject contents are:

- Information about other people´s tastes and habits and about our own tastes and habits.
- Identification about food, drinks, and main meals in English
- Likes and dislikes relating to food.
- Information about the main rules for correct hygiene
This unit includes 8 sessions divided in two weeks. Each lesson will have 45 minutes. At the end, the children will have to do a final task: elaborate a healthy menu.

1st session:
Time: 45 minutes

- Presentation: What´s on your plate? Power Point of presentation that is very useful to show how each type of food affects our body.

- Give out a card to each child and explain that, in turn, they have to say the name of the food depicted on the card and stick it in one of the four columns.

- Ask the children if they think some foods are good and others bad for them. Can a food be good or bad for you? Explain that there are no ´good´ or ´bad´ foods and say: We should eat a lot of some foods, but we should eat a little of others.

Materiales de la unidad

DISEÑO DE MATERIALES
Para la selección de recursos y materiales que he seleccionado para trabajar la unidad didáctica, me he apoyado principalmente en Internet, youtube, webs donde crear recursos propios (en mi caso flashcards) y diversos REA ya que pienso que las nuevas tecnologías y todo lo que tenga que ver con lo visual y auditivo favorecen el aprendizaje de la L2 y a la vez la comprensión de los contenidos que se van a trabajar. A su vez estos recursos servirán de andamiaje para la consecución de la tarea final. Entre ellos incluyo presentaciones, canciones… para introducir el tema y que se familiaricen con los contenidos, ejercicios de vocabulario, actividades fotocopiables, juegos online…
- ANDAMIAJE
Como andamiaje, se proponen los siguientes materiales a utilizar en diferentes actividades:
Para establecer el “Andamiaje de recepción” utilizaría unos videos de presentación de los conceptos a trabajar.

Presentación Where do the aliments come from? : esta presentación se realizará como apoyo para realizar la siguiente actividad https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATZARiXpE8M#t=13

- “Actividad de andamiaje de recepción”:

- Por otro lado, también usaría como refuerzo de todo lo que se trate unos posters para exponer los aspectos y características del tema en cuestión y que estarán presentes durante todas las sesiones dedicadas a este tema:
 Andamiaje de transformación”
Se utilizarán actividades donde los alumnos organicen las comidas según el grupo al que pertenecen.


Se utilizarán las flashcards para colocar en tablas o gráficos

 Con estos materiales se llevarían a cabo las actividades en las que los alumnos deberán identificar, decidir, contrastar…
Andamiaje de producción”: Se proponen un juego online y un concurso para fomentar la participación y las aportaciones o producciones propias de los alumnos.

Objetivos de los recursos

My CLIL unit called “Keeping healthy” is elaborated for students in the fifth year of Primary. To develop this unit I have used resources that have the following aims:

- To introduce the topic: Power Point presentation. This kind of presentation is very useful to show the children the topic with images easily recognized by the children.

 - To practice vocabulary and structures:  Videos are resources that motivate the students and reinforce the learning of the key vocabulary. The students are acquiring vocabulary (names, adjectives, verbs…) and structures which will be used to discuss some of the activities of the unit. Visual learning is also been addressed with this kind of resource. Flashcards is also a good visual aid to show the students the vocabulary, as well as something they can play with. Flashcards can be the traditional printed ones or we can have a go at using the application of Quizlet.

 - Understand the vocabulary and the content: Some activities with games help the students to discover what they know.

 - Understand and analyze: The worksheets are varied. Working with different vocabulary and ideas helps the students to build up their skills using expressions, the name of the food and drinks and at the same time, to relate them to the science topic of “Keeping healthy”. Consequently, they can play dialogues in the classroom about the food they usually eat during the day and the meals they have.  

 - Revise the content: The listenings, the videos, the power points and the games will help us to revise the content of the unit and to know more words. We can use them whenever we want. 
         
 - Investigate: Finally, all these resources will be used to elaborate a healthy, balanced menu.

Aspectos metodológicos aicle

       La unidad que he escogido para comentar es la llamada" the solar system" En ella se utilizan diferentes recursos relacionado con las tic. Algunos de los aspectos metodológicos más significativos de los principios Aicle es que la lengua se usa para aprender contenidos y a la vez que se aprende la L2.
       La materia es la que determina el tipo de lengua que se usa y la fluidez es más importante que la precisión gramatical general y en mi opinión, el grupo de alumnos al que va dirigido y sus características también influye en ello.
       Y  si utilizamos recursos educativos que llamen la atención, como imágenes, juegos... que hagan más atractivo ese aprendizaje, crearemo el entorno educativo perfecto para cumplir los objetivos propuesto.

My Webmix

       Es la primera vez que utilizo Symbaloo y me ha parecido un recurso de lo más útil para trabajar en clase. Aquí os dejo el enlace de mi webmix donde he recogido los recursos que me han parecido más significativos en la unidad que he escogido.
      Entre estos recursos podéis ver canciones, juegos para aumentar el vocabulario, flashcards, actividades para conocer estilos de vida saludable, vídeos...
      En todos ellos he intentado que tanto los conocimientos que se adquieran como el aprendizaje de la L2 vayan en consonancia y se adapten al curso al que se dirige la unidad.
     Espero que os gusten y os sirvan de tanta utilidad como a mi.
     Saludos.

Primera impresión de AICLE

Mi principal expectativa con este curso de AICLE es que me ayude a motivar más a mis alumnos utilizando recursos que ellos mismos conocen. Desde mi punto de vista, las nuevas tecnologías nos proporcionan herramientas amenas y diferentes que hacen las clases más atractivas para todos.

Hasta ahora no he tenido la oportunidad de utilizar mucho las tecnologías en clase porque carecíamos del material apropiado y confío en que a partir de ahora, gracias a AICLE, pueda utilizarlas más.

A diferencia de este curso online, asistí el año pasado a uno presencial donde se nos ofrecieron numerosos recursos relacionados con las TICs y algunos también fabricados por nosotros mismos.

De una manera u otra todo lo que sea innovar hace que las clases sean más interesantes tanto para los alumnos como para los profesores.

Os dejo mi presentación.
