Ingredients for successful CLIL - Keith Kelly
  teachingenglishthink                                      
Successful CLIL depends on a variety of factors. This paper discusses four factors relevant to successful implementation of CLIL.  Firstly, we will look at questions of managing and supporting the CLIL implementation process. Secondly, we will look at the roles and behaviours of teachers in the delivery of CLIL. Thirdly, we will examine the issue of resourcing CLIL in schools. Lastly, but by no means least importantly, we will consider factors to do with the learners in CLIL education.

Moving to a New House and The Ex-Footballer are short stories written by Sevim Ak, a popular Turkish writer of novels and short stories for children. Moving to a New House tells about a mum, dad and their son Yiğit who move into a new house. As Yiğit is not pleased about his room, he disappears for a while. Read the story to find out what they come across while looking for their son. The Ex-Footballer tells about a boy who rips his new football shirt while playing football.
