Moving Towards Developmentally Appropriate Practices
Redaktion: Otto, Ana; Cortina-Pérez, Beatriz

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This volume revolves around the present state-of-the-art of pre-primary (ages 3 to 6) Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) in language contexts in which the target language is not naturally used outside the classroom, and provides insights into the challenges concerning both theoretical issues and best teaching practices.

The volume offers a comprehensive overview of the main theoretical and methodological foundations for implementing CLIL in pre-primary education, and fills the theoretical gap that may lead to ground CLIL research at this early age in diverse international learning scenarios. This book offers practitioners, academics and researchers a wide array of possibilities and educational practices which can be suited to enrich language education, and introduce the additional language that students will learn in later years as part of the school curriculum, while respecting very young learners' main developmental features and learning processes.
