JALT Nagoya Meeting December 6

Experience the Power of Cross-Curricular
Lessons for Young Learners!
By Lesley Ito
BIG BOW English Lab

Cross-curricular lessons combine English with other subjects to interest young learners and to let them use English in a real context. Such lessons are common in European ESL classes, but are rare in Japan where the presenter has created an entire pre-school/elementary cross-curricular program for her new school. This interactive workshop will demonstrate several classroom-tested cross-curricular lessons, and explain their appropriateness. See how these types of lessons can invigorate your program!
