If you were not limited by the demands of the national/regional curriculum, what would you say is the most important thing you would teach your students about your subject (in a CLIL context)? How would you assess their learning?

                  The Curriculum is a good way to organize all the country/region school system, but there are some specific necessities that it can be covered.  The main contents that I choose to teach my subject, Physical Education at High school, are based on these elements: Body language, physical abilities, and the development of the movement.

         I would carry out the theory about physical abilities , explaining to my pupils how they can simply identify the difference between speed, strength, endurance and flexibility. I would try to develop my lessons an easy and scaffolding way to compare, order, analyse, drawing and explain different features about each ability.

         Talking from experience , the whole subject has a goal, to promote the healthy life, to do physical activity and appreciate it’s development along with physical abilities. This way will gives  students new focus in their every day life because they will be able to integrate physical activity in their day to day.

         It is really important that we know the steps in a CLIL lesson. The first step is to determinate if we are working with a communicative competence or with a content knowledge. The second step would be to have a content and language descriptors that I’m going to  need in preparing the task concerned for the CLIL unit. One content descriptor could be:  “To do a warm up and to complete a task sheet” and I could use this language descriptor: “ I can understand what is the warm up and its importance for the physical activity”.  The language descriptor must be prepared with “Can do” established by A2 and B2 levels. The task must be assessed in each skills: Listening, Speaking, Reading, and writing.

   The rubric in which this content and communication will be assessed must be well designed with the contents that I just mentioned before. It’s important that we carefully prepare it because it is going to be useful to analyze the evolution of our pupils and the whole teaching process.
