2. This is a Power Point Presentation
where you can see the developing
of my lesson plan.
My 2nd grade students where
working on a project about
romans, that is why I decided to
teach one session about Roman
mosaics using CLIL.
It consisted on one-hour
session, divided into two parts: one
in the classroom and one in the
computer room,.
In this presentation, I show you
some pictures of my group class in
action and some of the Power Point
and other materials I used.

13. FINAL REFLECTIONS:
I had a really great experience when teaching this lesson plan. The
students were surprised at the beginning because it was the first time they
listened English outside the language class. However, they followed it
without problems and the majority fulfilled the objectives of the lesson .
When they had to create their own mosaic with the on-line game they
were very motivated and the activity helped them “touch” a real Roman
mosaic.
I am very satisfied with my first class using CLIL. Altought it is a lot of work if
you wish to implement it on a daily basis, the results are positive and I think
it compensates the time spent.
