Principle One of Six for a Motivated Year in the 'Back to School' series:
1. Aligning a CI approach to your curriculum
In this episode we lay the foundations for a motivated year in your language classroom by ensuring our curriculum aligns with a CI and comprehension-based approach in our practice. It is all well and good having loads of great CI strategies up your sleeve but for those of us who teach within a curriculum, we need to ensure our syllabus and scheme of work allows us to use these strategies and importantly, gives us time and space to implement them.
In this episode we will look at how to backwards plan, using narrative as a backbone for into each unit and how to assess whilst teaching with a CI approach.
Don't miss the rest of the six principles which are on the way every Friday for the next five weeks:
2. The Acquisition-Motivation balance
3. The 5 minute block principle
4. Effective pairs to boost engagement
5. Creating a class yearbook
6. Running effective routines
