The document summarizes an attempt to teach geography content about the solar system to 6th grade students through English using Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL). The teacher considered factors like language level and prepared materials incorporating activities to develop the four skills and vocabulary through topics like planets, adjectives, and grammar. Students engaged with content through games, presentations, role-plays and used English to learn. Most students found it motivating and remembered information, though preparation was time-consuming and some struggled with comprehension.

1. First steps in applying CLIL: learning Geography through English and English through Geography C ontent and L anguage I ntegrated L earning “ Travelling through our Solar System” by Suzana Drampa and my 27 6 th - grade students of the 25 th Primary School

17. Have all students actually learnt about our solar system what they would have learnt in their mother language? What are they going to remember in the future? Is CLIL a method of teaching a subject or just another method of teaching English?

18. Did it worth the effort? It certainly did! Thank you for your attention
