Ścieżki międzyprzedmiotowe na lekcji języka angielskiego Ktoś powiedział, że angielski może być nudny?
Nic bardziej mylnego niż
przekonanie, że lekcje
języka angielskiego to ciągłe
poruszanie się wokół nudnych
tekstów dotyczących sposobu
spędzania wakacji czy
rutynowego dnia znanych osób.
Wielu nauczycieli języka angielskiego
realizuje treści programowe w oparciu o ścieżki
międzyprzedmiotowe. Jest to wielka okazja
do wzbudzenia zainteresowania uczniów
językiem przez przeniesienie ich uwagi na
treść, która poszerzy zakres wiadomości o innym
przedmiocie przy wykorzystaniu języka
obcego. Często problemem staje się „baza”,
na podstawie której uczący mógłby przeprowadzić
takie zajęcia. Brak pomysłów, niekiedy
desperackie szukanie materiałów w sieci –
to sytuacje, z jakimi borykają się nauczyciele
chcący przygotować ciekawe zajęcia o zintegrowanej
treści.
W numerze 1 „Anglofana” z 2006 r. ukazał
się artykuł na temat integrowania języka
i treści (Content and Language Integrated Learning),
w którym przedstawiliśmy przykład
lekcji biologii integrującej język i treści. Dziś
prezentujemy przykład lekcji historii.
Topic: History

The Vikings
The first Viking raids, commencing about 80 years earlier, had been hitand-
run affairs. A few shiploads of these huge and brawny men would
suddenly appear out of the sea mists. They would pillage at will, mercilessly
cutting down all opposition, then disappear over the waters as swiftly
as they had come. But Ivar the Boneless had higher ambitions: he meant
to conquer England and make that fertile, well-watered land his own.
Ivar embarked with his men and their arms in a fleet of dragon-prowed
ships of war and sailed for three days across the North Sea. When he
made his landfall on the coast of Kent, the overawed inhabitants desperately
tried to buy peace from the Vikings. “And the people of Kent promised
them money for that peace,” related the historians of the day in the
Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. “And under cover of the peace and promise of
money, the Viking army stole away inland by night and ravaged all eastern
Kent, for they knew that they would seize more money by secret plunder
than by peace.”
... In all this the Vikings gained immense booty. But they were far more
than latter-day barbarians, content merely to plunder and burn. As shrewd
and intelligent as they were brave and brawny, they were builders of cities
and founders of states, writers of poetry and givers of laws. The Vikings
were supreme traders as well, and bold and tenacious explorers who ventured
across distant oceans. Indeed, not since the golden age of the Roman
Empire had any people so powerfully stamped the Western world
with their personality and purpose.
(from The Vikings by Robert Wernick)
